wrapping up the investigation, which as you can imagine is very extensive and of course if there are any individuals out there who we are not aware of who come forward obviously they'll need to be spoken with as well. that's the state's attorney from yesterday's newses conference. we spent the day today trying to learn more about carlos bell. we reached out to several people we thought may have been relatives, friends, so far we've come up with nothing at this interest on. it could be possible of course that the july 4 holiday got in the way of our investigation. we also want to tell you that we did ask the school system to provide his resume so we could learn a little bit more about him. they declined to do so. they said state law prevents them from turning that over. paul wagner, fox5 local news >> on the way should police community relations be taught in schools now? >> black lives matter saying they're trying to stop a billion that teaches school children p how to al
