A soldier involved in a high-speed chase with Georgia State Police has died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, the military says.
A news release from Fort Campbell says Spc. Rico L. Rawls Jr., 22, died around 2 p.m. Monday. Rawls Jr. was wanted by military police in connection with the shooting death of his wife, Jessica T. Rawls, of South Bend.
The mother of three was found dead Friday evening at the couple’s home within the military installation, which straddles the Kentucky-Tennessee state line. Military police say they were led to the home following a domestic dispute call.
"I got onto Facebook and saw posts about her passing and I just kind of lost it,” Rawls’ longtime friend JaNetta Jenner said.
Jenner met Rawls as a fourth grade student at Kennedy Elementary School on South Bend’s west side.
"I came to Kennedy with no friends and she was the first person that I became friends with. If you ever had a problem she was there, she was really my best friend,” Jenner added.
Rawls moved to Florida in middle school, only to return to South Bend in the late 1990s. Reunited as freshman, Rawls and Jenner played basketball and softball together at LaSalle High School until graduating in 2002.
