Outside the bank?
I wonder if he actually carried his weapon into the bank with him....I can't think of anything that would make me want to kill myself. I just don't get it. It seems that Southern Maryland has more than its share of suicides. I guess he wanted out bad. One positive note though, he didn't take anyone else with him.

Does the PNC on Great Mills have an ATM? If so, that might've happened.

Unconfirmed..
Let's just wait until the police put out a statement (if we ever read one) before we have all commented on this..Although, we may never read one..

What?
"a male and female were arguing on the sidewalk in front of the bank and the male pulled out a handgun and shot himself in the head." If true as stated, what did this accomplish? Is this some kind of power play where he thought he was punishing this woman somehow becuase she has the memory of seeing this? Why do people think they always have to win, always be in charge? And, who lost? The dead guy or the live woman? It's a shame he is gone, because now he can't see and hear everybody telling him how stupid he was. For his family and loved ones, you have my deepest sympathies for your loss. Please don't feel like there was anything you could have done to prevent this, because he was the sole person responsible.

murder take time suicide is not that hard if you known that the man shot him self clean up move to paper work this happen at the same time kids were getting out of school that women in the pic was just one of many i was at the car wash (cleaning my car) they were still there well after they knew the cause so all the blame on the parent is wrong for all you know she could have told the little girl look at the police kids like mine love to see flashing lights

Learn proper english...
Seriously. Terrible story. Suicide makes me angry. We've all been low before but I could never imagine missing out on waking up to see my loved ones again, to see a blue sky, experience a thunderstorm, love on my pets, ya know - simple things in life. Its just selfish.

FITA-
That is no excuse! Even if it were her father, she should not be exposed to suicide/murder/bodies etc. Thats just sick. And if you don't have the parental intelligence to realize that, than it IS our "bussiness" to tell you how to be a parent. "A;; the way across the street"? Dear God, how old is your daughter? 3?

The child should not have been exposed to that scene at all. There is no way I would ever take my child with me to something like that. These kids see enough crap in the world today without their parents exposing them to something like this. What fond memories she will have of seeing that..............

What a piece of white trash you are! How dare you expose your child to that type of environment? I feel very sorry for your daughter to have to grow up in the type of environment you are providing. She should be taken away from you.....but that'll never happen because then you'd lose your food stamps and Section 8!

Reply to blue&red: Got Her...
IF thats not the truth then I dont know what is!!! LOL....FETA blue&red just called you out BIG TIME!!! I live right in that area and this is the 2nd body that has been found within the last month and a half. What is going on? The first body that was found nothing was ever said about it. The only reason why I know anything about it at all is becasue it happened right in front of my house, which is right behind the PNC Bank where this guy was found. Something needs to be done with "the park". Some of the people that live there need to be dealt with all the drugs, prostitution and god knows what else. As many cops as I see on Great Mills road all the time you would think nothing like this would ever happen but I guess it does when all you have is a bunch of cocky a**holes rolling around in their cop cars talking on the phone NOT paying attention.

WOW!!! This female wigga is the epitomy of St. Mary's... Wait... I know she didn't understand that, let me put it in her language... "Dis ho be exactly what st. murry's iz all abouts". YOU ARE RIGHT... you definitely will be the BIGGER woman... but I'm pretty sure you are better at NOTHING in life than anyone else.... especially PROPER ENGLISH! But here... let me help you out a little bit, wiggs: - THANG (Thing) - NO (Know) - Worrie (Worry) - Anythang (Anything) - INPORTANT (Important) - Trashey (Trashy) - Childern (Children) - Options (Opinions) - Alls (All) - YALLS (Your) - A;; (All) - Bussiness (Business) Maybe the dude shot himself (or for you: 'hisself') because he had to constantly hear you talk!!!! Are you sure that you can even READ the bible?? Or is it an Audio Bible where it is read to you??

Reply to Truth_Teller: I think FETA had that one coming
Truth_Teller tells the truth. That "YALL CAN TAKE YOUR OPTIONS AND SHOVE THEM". Really? Our options? Haha. That is hilarious. Oh, and by the way Truth_Teller, I think I may have had an accident on myself. Good one :] P.S How long will it take FETA to write a comment back? She might look in the dictionary this time, just to prove a point ahha

Reply to Truth_Teller: RE: JOHNSON101
Unless the Dictionary talks to her and tells her what to write and how to spell... then I think we are all safe from that. She CLAIMS that she is "dun reespondin" to all of our "com mints", so we may not hear from her anymore. It's ashame... she was great comedy.

That has to be the worst grammar I've ever seen. And just by the way, just because you use the word whom over and over again, does not make you look smart.
