Police Insp. Don Coleman said they’re now turning to the public after ruling it a homicide.

“Somebody knows something,” he said earlier this week.

The cause of death and what kind of injuries Cyrus suffered are not being released, but investigators believe the injuries occurred inside his home.

Police aren’t looking for any suspects at this time.

The church said those involved are in its thoughts and prayers.

“On Monday April 24th, it was announced that the police are treating the death of Cyrus as a homicide. We were saddened to hear of this development. We understand that Dan has been brought in for questioning by the police and was released, and that no charges have been laid at this time,” the church statement said.

“Until matters are further clarified, the church board has put Dan on administrative leave. As a church community we continue to pray for all who are involved.”
