Two investigations have been opened surrounding the death of Dan Fitzgibbons, an Erie County employee and city Marshall in Lackawanna.

Fitzgibbons’ body was found in Cattaraugus Creek near Springville Monday morning.

The Erie County Sheriff’s Department is investigating his death as a suicide.

In the meantime, Lackawanna Police say that someone sent a bizarre text message from Fitzgibbons’ phone to many of his contacts on Sunday. Fitzgibbons reported his phone stolen that same day.

Police are now trying to figure out who sent that message.

Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz tweeted a message about Fitzgibbons’ death, calling him a good friend and offering condolences to his wife and family.
