Suicide
Justin G. Nelson reportedly shot himself after a standoff with police that lasted more than four hours. Officers went to the apartment with a search warrant. Three people came out, but Nelson reportedly refused to surrender. After unsuccessfully attempting to talk to Nelson, police said they heard a shot. Officers entered the apartment at about 7:30 p.m. and found Nelson wounded in the bathroom. According to police, the officers found several suicide notes in the apartment. A 380-caliber handgun was also reportedly found near Nelson. Ballistics tests later confirmed that the gun was used to kill Kevin Mark Henderson, 42, inside a MotoMart gas station/convenience store on June 26.
