CHICAGO AP – An investigation into the death of Chicago’s school board president will continue even though an autopsy concluded that the longtime civic leader shot himself in the head on a Chicago River embankment, police said.
Chicago Board of Education President Michael Scott’s body and a .380-caliber handgun were found near a riverside loading dock not far from his car about 3:15 a.m. Monday, police said. The Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office ruled the death a suicide, but police said an investigation was ongoing.
