The Suffolk Police Department has concluded its investigation of a former city manager’s husband and turned the matter over to the Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office.
Commonwealth’s Attorney C. Phillips Ferguson said his office is reviewing the matter.
“We will be moving forward in as expeditious a manner as possible after looking at all the facts and circumstances,” Ferguson said.
A search warrant filed last week says Keith Rodney Glenn admitted to police that he struck his own vehicle while driving a vehicle belonging to his wife, Selena Cuffee-Glenn, in front of their house on Kendal Way.
He had reported the incident as a hit-and-run both to police and to his insurance company, the search warrant states.
According to the search warrant, Glenn reported to police on April 30 that an unknown person fled the scene after hitting his 2009 Chevrolet HHR while it was parked in front of his residence.
However, a Suffolk police officer “located a witness that observed Mr. Glenn strike his own 2009 Chevy HHR prior to police arriving while operating gray 2010 Dodge registered to Glenn’s wife,” according to the search warrant. “Glenn was witnessed to have struck parked 2009 Chevy HHR, he then exited 2010 Dodge pick up and observed damage and then parked 2010 Dodge in front of his garage.”
The search warrant goes on to say that Glenn “stated he called police and reported a hit/run because he was ashamed” and that he “reported the hit/run to Geico because he didn’t know how to tell them he struck his own vehicle.”
The search warrant states that Glenn called Geico back and told them had had in fact struck his own vehicle.
At the time, Cuffee-Glenn had already announced her acceptance of the city manager position in Richmond but was still city manager in Suffolk.
The search warrant states that police obtained a CD and an “SIU Report” from Geico’s Virginia Beach office. According to Geico’s website, “SIU” stands for Special Investigations Unit, “an entire division of associates whose sole mission is to detect, deter and defeat insurance fraud.”
