Suspect in Mississippi Shootings Commits Suicide 
-------------------------------------------------


 
In Mississippi, a man accused of killing his partner and a colleague has
died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Authorities say they were
pursuing Shannon Lamb when he pulled over, ran away and shot himself.
Delta State University was locked down Monday after Lamb allegedly shot
and killed professor Ethan Schmidt. Police say hours earlier he murdered
his domestic partner, Amy Prentiss, at their home, 300 miles away.
