At Rest

Suicide
Officer Taylor Miller responded to a reported disturbance in Cougar Country. As Miller arrived, he saw a motorcycle with no license plate leaving. The officer attempted to stop the motorcycle, but the operator, William Lyons, refused to stop. The chase reached speeds of over 100 mph, continued until the driver apparently lost control of the bike, laying it down in a driveway. As Miller approached, he saw a flash and heard a gunshot, and Lyons reportedly shot and killed himself.
This record exists so that William “Willie” Eugene Lyons, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
