WASHINGTON -- The embattled State Department Inspector General, who has been accused of impeding a Justice Department investigation of Blackwater Worldwide, announced his resignation Friday to colleagues.
Howard Krongard revealed his departure to co-workers at the department on Friday, said Gonzalo Gallegos, a department spokesman.
Gallegos offered no other details, including when Krongard's departure takes effect.
"We thank him for his service," Gallegos said.
