How they died
Suicide
Police responded around 9:15 a.m. to a report that two or three men held up Starters in the Fairlane Town Center, then fled in a 1992 white Buick Roadmaster with the restaurant owner in pursuit. Officers caught up to the Buick on the northbound Southfield Freeway service drive, where the car veered into the curb and the men inside fled on foot. Officer Eric Christensen pursued Previn Dixon Jr. in his patrol car. According to police, Dixon fired shots in Christensen's direction before turning the gun on himself. Some witnesses disputed the police account, saying they saw Christensen shoot Dixon. No bullet was recovered from Dixon's body.
