Chicago real estate executive kills himself, police say
A Chicago commercial real estate broker committed suicide in a Kane County wildlife preserve, police said Monday.
A maintenance worker discovered the body of Steven L. Good, 52, of Highland Park, Monday morning behind the wheel of his Jaguar parked in a lot at the Max McGraw Wildlife Preserve in East Dundee, said Kane County Sheriff's Department spokesman Lt. Pat Gengler.
Good had suffered a single gunshot wound to the head. Gengler said police recovered a weapon inside the car but he would not identify it. There was no note, Gengler said.
Investigators are not sure how long Good's body had been at the preserve or why he was in Kane County, Gengler said.
