The fugitive suspected of shooting and killing a man, then posting a video of the slaying on Facebook, killed himself today following a short police chase, according to investigators. Cleveland police Chief Calvin Williams told reporters that investigators were in the Erie area, about 150 kilometres to the east, because it was the last place where Stephens's cellphone was detected. 'Just snapped'Prior to the killing, Stephens's life appeared to be unravelling under the weight of gambling debts and trouble with his girlfriend. The video purporting to show Stephens killing Godwin was taken down by Facebook after a few hours. Stephens also mentioned a woman's name and told Godwin, "She's the reason that this is about to happen to you."
