PORTLAND, Maine (WGAN)  The Portland Police Department says it is working around the clock to finish their investigation into the homicide of a Portland man.

Isahak Muse was killed on March 26 and police have released few details surrounding the case.

In a press release, Interim Portland Police Chief Vern Malloch said, “We wish that we could share more details about the case, but revealing too much information could jeopardize the outcome of the investigation and we know no one wants that to happen.”

Malloch says police are in communication with Muse’s family as they continue to work with their partners to determine what happened.

“Please know that Isahak’s death is the top priority of the Portland Police Department. We have assigned a team of investigators to this tragic case. They are working diligently interviewing everyone involved,” Malloch said.
