The IP was traced to a (so far) anonymous user originating in Stamford, CT, which of course is the headquarters of World Wrestling Entertainment.
wikipedia volunteer coordinator Cary Bass contacted the Fayetteville police department in regard to the posting. The police department did not return calls for comment.
It should be noted that with wikipedia, anyone can edit entries on the online encylopedia, which often leads to misinformation on topics and personalities. Given the timing of the Benoit tragedy, obviously, authorities will be seeking to track down whoever made that change.
From PWInsider.
Holy shit.
I want to say that it was some false information (or Fox News is pulling this out of their ass), but the fact that it came from Stamford leads me to believe someone knew something was up.

Yeah, I was gonna post this! HOLY SHIT is right man!! This is just fucked up. I don't see how or why any of this happened, but I REALLY FAIL to see how making a Wikipedia update becomes first priority at WWE headquarters if someone indeed had the information.
