Ronni Chasen: Hollywood publicist's murder 'suspect' commits suicide in hotel lobby Mail Online: "A man believed to be connected to the murder of Hollywood publicist Ronnie Chasen has shot himself dead in a Hollywood residential motel, police revealed last night.In a shocking new twist, the unidentified man killed himself in the lobby of the Harvey Apartments on Santa Monica Boulevard as officers served a search warrant there, Beverly Hills Police said.
The shooting occurred around 6pm on Wednesday night.Police had approached the man in the lobby of the Harvey Apartments on Santa Monica Boulevard.He spotted them, produced the gun, and shot himself, police said.He was described as a 'person of interest' rather than as a 'suspect' by officers.But police refused to give details of his connection to Chasen and her death.Police did say that the case has not been closed by the man's death.
He had been under surveillance by police in connection with Chasen's death for some time.Officers had received a tip that he would be in his room at the Harvey Apartments on Wednesday night, sources told the LA Times.
The dingy short-term let apartments, in a downmarket area of Hollywood, are a far cry from the area in which Chasen lived."
