WBIR: Man commits suicide at city council meeting
A business owner shot himself fatally in the head during a City Council meeting in Clarksville after members voted against his request to rezone his property.
Bo Ward, owner of Bo's Barber Shop, had told the council -- which approved first reading of the zone change last month -- that his business would go under if the change was not granted.
Following the vote last night, Ward approached the council and said, " ... Ya'll have put me under, I'm done."
Ward then shot himself with a small handgun in front of the council members and about 50 people attending the meeting.
Nothing is worth this, kiddies, not even the business you have struggled to build your entire life. Only perdition awaits.
