Chopping Looks Like Murder, Police Say “Death” Investigation

Police say George Hyde's case is being treated as a death investigation; they are not calling it murder at this point. He is the Buena Vista resident that was chopped to death on Sunday morning. Apparently he was socializing at a friend's house in the village when he was attacked and left for dead. Information is that he was involved with the woman who lived at the house and that may have fueled the deadly confrontation. Police haven't confirmed this motive as yet but they say they have already released the 3 men who they had detained. They continue to investigate.
