Police in Arkansas are investigating whether a man fatally shot himself in the head as he sat in the backseat of a patrol car with his hands cuffed behind his back.
Chavis Carter, 21, died after Jonesboro police stopped a truck in which he was riding July 28 and learned he had an outstanding arrest warrant related to a drug charge. Carter was searched twice, handcuffed and put into the back of the patrol car, according to a police report.
Officers a short time later saw Carter slumped over in the backseat and covered in blood, according to the report, which concluded he had managed to conceal a handgun with which he shot himself. He later died at a hospital, and the report listed his death as a suicide.
Jonesboro Police Chief Michael Yates said Tuesday it appeared Carter shot himself in the head, but his department is investigating the incident, which the chief described as “very unusual.”
Occam’s Razor isn’t THAT sharp….
A searched and handcuffed man “shot himself in the head” in the back of a patrol car, and the police are allowed to investigate THEMSELVES.
Who watches the watchmen?

Yeah, that “Suicide” is about as Truthful as an Obama Press Conference.
When you hear hoof beats think horse, not zebra.
Telekinetic criminal?

Or a cop shot him for whatever reason, and his buddies are willing to stick to the dumb story.
Nah. Gotta be the mutant powers
I suspect that in this case the mutant(s) may have been wearing blue…
