while suicide

Hello,

I read this morning on BBC World :

"A New York police spokesman said that the while suicide could not be ruled out, there was nothing to suggest that this had been the cause of the crash, which is being investigated as an accident."

Can somebody explain to me what a "while suicide" ?

Thank you.

Somebody just accidentally added a "the" between "that" and "while" that shouldn't be there. The sentence should read:

"A New York police spokesman said that while suicide could not be ruled out..."
