How they died
Suicide
Police said they got a call around 2 p.m. from a woman in Grand Haven who said she was following a Ford F-150 pickup truck driven by a Douglas Norton, who had her 15-year-old daughter (who was reportedly the man's girlfiren) with him. The girl's mother said Norton had a handgun and was threatening suicide. Police said they tried to stop the truck on US-31, but Norton fled. The pursuit entered Muskegon County at 2:23 p.m. Officers attempted evasive measures to stop the truck, but weren't successful. Norton eventually pulled over on the ramp to Pontaluna Road, where he reportedly shot himself in the head and died at the scene.
