Richard A. Wiley

Suicide

Wiley had been sought by authorities on child molestation charges, according to police. A Bloomingdale officer driving an unmarked other spotted Wiley in a black Chevrolet pickup in Port Wentworth. The officer summoned marked Port Wentworth police units; the truck pulled over on Ga. 21 at the busy Interstate 95 interchange. As officers approached, Wiley put a gun to his head, and for about two minutes, the police tried to persuade Wiley to put the gun down. He shot and killed himself.
