How they died

Suicide

Michael William Leo, a reserve deputy with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, reportedly took his own life after San Bernardino County sheriff's deputies went to his house to investigate a hang-up 911 call. When deputies arrived, they found Leo and a woman inside the house. Leo, who was apparently only wearing shorts, asked if he could get a T-shirt from a bedroom, then pulled a gun out of a drawer and shot himself.
