Retired racecar driver Richard "Dick" Trickle, 71, died Thursday from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to Lincoln County officials.
The shooting occurred at 12:02 p.m. at Forest Lawn Cemetery on Highway 150 East in Boger City.
The Lincoln County Communications Center received a call, apparently from Trickle, that "there would be a dead body and it would be his." Communications Center workers tried to place a return call to the number but did not get an answer.

Wow, I'm speechless... just speechless.
ReplyDeleteI have no problem with what he did. Obviously he couldn't take it any longer and he didn't do it in his home where someone has to clean up the mess. God Bless Dr. Kevorkian. Sometimes you have to do what you have to do.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a shame. R.I.P.
