MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Md. - A man has been arrested in connection with a 2001 cold-case murder in Chevy Chase, bringing a long-awaited breakthrough to an investigation that has left the victim's family in shock.
Montgomery County police were called to a home in Chevy Chase 23 years ago, where they found Leslie Preer murdered after she failed to show up for work.
For years, the case went cold with no leads until DNA evidence from the scene recently matched Eugene Gligor, 44, a familiar face to the victim’s family.
Lauren Preer, the victim's daughter, expressed her disbelief, revealing that Gligor was her ex-boyfriend. … "It’s been a hell of a day!" she said. "He was my ex-boyfriend!"
