Page teen charged for 2021 Phillip murder of Glenn Walewicz

An 18-year-old Page man will face the ACT Children’s Court today charged with the 2021 murder of Phillip man Glenn Walewicz.

A year-long investigation by ACT Policing Homicide Squad detectives into the murder of Phillip man Glenn Walewicz in June 2021, resulted in the arrest and charging of an 18-year-old Page man yesterday, Sunday 5 June.  

The investigation saw multiple lines of enquiry including examining hundreds of hours of CCTV footage, analysing phone records and speaking to numerous witnesses.   

Detective Inspector Mark Steel said today’s result is a direct result of the tenacity and dedication of the investigating officers.   

“To see one person charged with murder and another with being an accessory to the crime is a great result, but there’s certainly more to do. This will hopefully provide some comfort for Mr Walewicz’s family that the detectives are still working hard on this investigation some 12 months on,” Detective Inspector Steel said.

Police are renewing their calls for anyone who has any information regarding this matter to come forward to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or via the Crime Stoppers ACT website.
