The St. Joseph County, Indiana sheriff’s department says 31-year-old James Turns fatally shot himself Tuesday night. Berrien County, Michigan Undersheriff Chuck Heit says authorities got a tip that the arson and theft suspect was in Indiana. Heit says the man killed himself after fleeing police on foot in Granger, Ind. Authorities say a masked man doused baby clothes with a flammable material and set it afire Sunday at a Walmart in Niles Township, about 20 miles south-southeast of Benton Harbor. They say he smashed a display case and stole several iPads. (AP)
