Source reveals how suspect is connected to crime spree victims

ELKHART – New details are emerging from this Monday’s deadly rampage in Elkhart County.  Elkhart County Coroner John White ruled the death of a man who died in a car fire after being chased by police a suicide. White said that man died from “thermal injury,” meaning he was very badly burned. But it could take weeks until the coroner knows whether that body belongs to the man investigators believe is responsible for the violent crime spree that ended with three other people dead.
