How they died
Suicide
Omaha police said they responded to a report that William J. Corey Jr. was behaving erratically and was possibly suicidal, but he wasn't at home. Police tried to stop Corey's 1990 Chevrolet Baretta near 120th and Q Streets, and a helicopter pursued Corey as he drove onto westbound I-80 at around 2:40 a.m. Sarpy County deputies saw Corey near Highway 31 and attempted to stop him, but he turned around and led them along the freeway before stopping near NE-50. According to police, Corey was found slumped over the wheel, dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.
