Crime Suspect Found Dead in Decatur Public Pool

 

Maintenance workers found a body floating in a public swimming pool in Decatur that is believed to be that of a suspect in a knife attack.

The Macon County Coroner's office says Tiheyon D. Freeman was found early Tuesday in the Fairview Park pool. An autopsy is scheduled for Wednesday.

Decatur police say Freeman was a suspect in an attack early Monday that left one woman hospitalized after undergoing surgery to remove part of a knife from her head. A second victim was stabbed several times, but was treated and released from a local hospital.

Decatur Park District officials say the pool in which the body was found will be closed Tuesday and Wednesday.
