| Kevin Duck is in jail on a probation violation |
-
Authorities have now named their "person of interest" in their investigation into the December murder of police dispatcher Dawna Natzke.
Natzke's boyfriend, and the last person seen with her, Kevin Duck, 28, was arrested by the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office in Louisiana yesterday (02-01-12) on a no bond Arkansas Warrant for probation violation.
Dawna Natzke was last seen leaving a holiday party with Duck on December 21. Natzke's son reported his mom missing two days later when she didn't show up for her shift at the Hot Springs Village Police Department.
A friend of Natzke's allegedly witnessed Duck shoving or pushing Natzke as the couple were leaving the party on Wednesday December 21st. The friend texted Natzke, who is said to have left her purse at the party, around 8 a.m. Thursday (12-22-11) morning and said she was concerned about how she had seen Kevin treating Dawna.
Natzke's friend, Patty Hatthaway, contacted a neighbor of the murdered woman and asked them to check on Natzke after allegedly receiving a "strange text" back saying something along the lines of, "He didn't shove me. I took a pain pill and stumbled."
