Moment of Despair

Brian Masck

Muskegon Chronicle

Billy Ray Youngblood puts a pistol in his mouth while threatening to kill himself, from the back of a police car, after being picked up for questioning in a bad-check investigation. Youngblood later turned the gun over to officers, firing only one shot at police.
