Who will investigate the death of Enrique Delgado-Garcia? NBC Boston [Video]

Nearly a week after a recruit was fatally injured at the Massachusetts State Police Academy in New Braintree, it remains unclear what agency will lead the investigation.

State police said Friday that 25-year-old Enrique Delgado-Garcia had died at a hospital. One day earlier, police say he was badly injured during a defensive tactics training exercise.

Worcester County District Attorney Joseph Early Jr. stood beside members of Delgado-Garcia’s family, who have demanded answers about his death, at a press conference Monday.
