TERRE HAUTE, Ind. — Police have arrested three people in connection with the death of a Terre Haute radio personality Matt Leucking, according to Fox59.

Investigators say officers found Leucking’s body Monday at his apartment and soon knew they were dealing with a homicide. His cause of death hasn’t been released, and an autopsy has been scheduled for a later time, according to WTHI.

His vehicle was missing and authorities were later contacted about a man trying to use Leucking’s bank card at Walmart, WTHI reports. Police tracked the man’s license plate to a Parke County address, and they found two men loading things into Leucking’s car. After interviewing the men at the scene, they arrested John Collins, 24, for his murder.

Early this morning, detectives made two more arrests in the case.

Benjamin J. Selig, 28, of Rockville, faces a preliminary charge of assisting a criminal, a level 5 felony. Kathleen E. Featherstone, 25, of Terre Haute, faces preliminary charges of felony murder, robbery and burglary. They’re due in court today and police say more arrests are possible.

Leucking was well-known in the area, and he most recently worked for WFNB-FM (B 92.7).  Program Director Eric Michaels released the following statement to FOX59: “Everyone that knew Matt, loved Matt, and the void left in our community and more importantly in our hearts is massive.”

“We know Matt was a big loss for this community, and we’ll do everything we can to get justice,” Terre Haute Police Chief John Plasse said.
