Suicide At Firing Line - Again

Another person shot themselves in the head at the Firing Line shooting range in Burbank, nearly a year after a similar suicide at the same facility. Rather creepily, I actually went shooting at Firing Line last night, just before the suicide. From the Burbank News-Leader:
Burbank police officers found the man dead with what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head upon arriving at the scene.

Officers closed the site at 1060 N. Lake St. to the public as they investigated whether the shooting was an accident or suicide, Burbank Police Sgt. Thor Merich said.

The man, a regular at the Burbank shooting range, reportedly used his own handgun and ammunition, authorities said. The investigation is ongoing, with an official cause of death still to be determined.
