The death of a former Bowling Green
State University teacher and administrator has been determined to be a homicide.Bowling Green Police Chief
Brad Conner said this morning that a report released by the Wood County Coroner’s Office determined that
Dawn Glanz, 66, died as a result of a homicide. The cause of death was a “sharp force injury to the
scalp.”The report was released Monday.Conner said that, as yet, no charges are forthcoming and the matter is
still under investigation.Glanz, 66, died May 9 at her residence in the 1000 block of Kensington Boulevard.
Her death had previously been labeled as suspicious by police.Lt. Tony Hetrick of the BGPD said this morning
that “it’s something that we’ll be working on until we can conclude it. Nothing’s changed on our
end.”Glanz’s sister, Gail Lincoln of Ketchum, Idaho, had sought a temporary restraining order against
Glanz’s husband, Robert Brown, in U.S. District Court this summer, after he reportedly scheduled an estate
sale, advertising “high-end antique items” which was to take place in June. Lincoln also sought damages
amounting to $275,000 against Brown for emotional distress.In the complaint filed in that case, Lincoln said
that Glanz was found in the bathroom of the residence by Brown, who reported she had a stroke.According to
the complaint “injuries found during a preliminary examination of her body suggested the cause of death may
have been from unnatural causes.”The temporary restraining order was granted by U.S. Judge James G. Carr,
but the remainder of the case was ultimately dismissed in October by Lincoln.
