I like it when the master criminal stories are nice and simple.
The victim was located on scene suffering from a gunshot wound and transported to the hospital where he later died.
The suspect, identified as 43-year-old Gilbert Vermillion, was apprehended after falling out of his moving vehicle in an attempt to flee the scene, according to police.
Vermillion was treated at a local hospital for his injuries sustained in the crash and is being held on suspicion of first-degree murder.
If only we knew if he was covered in blood…then he could get a names tag too. At least I think vermilion means red, right?
I think so. Hold on. Let’s Google it.
It’s vermilion with one L and his name has two, but definitely close enough to count.
1. : a vivid reddish orange.
2. : a bright red pigment consisting of mercuric sulfide.
broadly : any of various red pigments.
So we’re certainly in the neighbourhood of blood.
If only we knew exactly why he went to the hospital…
