Former professional baseball player Charles Haeger, 37, who is suspected of shooting and killing his ex-girlfriend, was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound on a Grand Canyon trail Saturday evening.
Police say Haeger killed 34-year-old Danielle Breed on Friday night before fleeing. His abandoned grey 2020 Chrysler Voyager was found near Flagstaff on Saturday.
Officials said Haeger was found dead of an self-inflicted gunshot wound along the Rim Trail at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon around 4 p.m., according to police.
Haeger, a Livonia native, attended Novi Detroit Catholic Central before being drafted by the Chicago White Sox in 2001.
