Missouri doctor’s death ruled as a suicide

Arkansas authorities said the death of a Missouri doctor, who was found 11 months ago in a northwest Arkansas lake, has been ruled a suicide.

Benton County Sheriff’s Department officials said Thursday that then 49-year-old Dr. John Forsyth died of a gunshot wound to the head. An Arkansas State Crime Lab autopsy concluded the death was a suicide and sheriff’s detectives had no evidence contradicting that finding.

A kayaker found Forsythe’s body in Arkansas on May 30th on Beaver Lake.
