Death of Packers assistant Sherman's son ruled suicide

GREEN BAY, Wis. (May 19, 2003 7:09 p.m. EDT) - The 14-year-old son of Packers assistant coach Ray Sherman shot himself in the head with his father's gun, a death the medical examiner ruled a suicide.

Ray Sherman Jr. was helping his family move from a rented home Sunday afternoon when he found his father's weapon while alone in the garage, police Lt. Jim Arts said.

Ray Sherman found his son 10 minutes after the gun went off and called 911, Arts said. The boy's mother, two younger sisters, 5 and 11, and grandmother also were at home but didn't hear the shot.

His father had gone looking for the teen to take him to a movie, Arts said.

The coach told police he had owned guns for more than 20 years and that the .38-caliber pistol and ammunition were usually kept separately. The gun was in a duffel bag on a shelf in the garage.
