BALTIMORE, Sept. 24 (UPI) -- Former Baltimore Orioles pitcher Mike Flanagan had threatened suicide several times before fatally shooting himself last month, police records show.
The Baltimore Sun said records show Flanagan's wife, Alex Flanagan, had told detectives in an interview he had taken a shotgun several times and walked outside their home in Sparks, Md., and said, "I can't take it anymore." She said each time she talked her husband out out of killing himself.
