'DROWNING' MAY HAVE BEEN HOMICIDE

The results of an autopsy may show that William Hudson-Grimmett, 41, who was found dead in his swimming pool Sunday night, was murdered.
Evidence at the scene was not consistent with a drowning, informed sources said. Grimmett, who was reportedly found in the pool fully dressed and with his cell phone, wallet and keys on him, may have been struck over the head before he fell or was pushed into the water.
Grimmett, of No. 14 Estate Mafolie, was discovered dead in his pool at 8:15 p.m. by an exterminator who serviced the property.
Attempts by Radio One to reach the medical examiner Tuesday were unsuccessful.
