The Clark County Sheriff’s Office on Monday identified the 25-year-old man who fatally shot himself in the head early Saturday morning at his home in Vancouver.
Jeremy A. Wiese was found dead in a back bedroom with a single gunshot wound to the head.
Clark County Sheriff’s deputies and Vancouver police officers were called at 2:52 a.m. Saturday to a house at 4213 N.E. 38th St. to a report of a possible suicide or accidental shooting.
A preliminary investigation revealed that the man had been showing a newly purchased .357-caliber revolver to his friend when he shot himself. Detectives with the Clark County Major Crimes Unit responded and are conducting the investigation.
The house was occupied by numerous adults who had been consuming alcohol at the time of the shooting, authorities said.
