Police have filed no charges against Freed, but said they are investigating

Since no other person in the sentence is mentioned one must presume the police are investigating Freed. I am sorry you do not like my sense of humor.

Maybe if the article actually quoted the police, then one would be able to make a reasonable determination who and *what* the police were investigating. They may have been investigating the entire incident.

The article doesn't quote the police -- I don't make the same assumption as you did.
