OHP: Man Fleeing Traffic Stop Takes Own Life

The State Highway Patrol is investigating why a Delaware man took his own life after fleeing from a traffic stop.  Troopers say 39-year-old David Yocum shot himself in a cornfield in Cardington yesterday after a 15-minute chase into Morrow County.  The chase forced the Cardington schools into a lockdown for several hours.
