McComb Mourns After Sgt. Jason Blake’s Tragic D**th
Off-Duty Hero Ki**ed While Responding to Call
The small Mississippi city of McComb grieves the loss of Sgt. Jason Blake, a respected five-year veteran of the police force. Authorities say Blake d**d in an apparent m*rder-su**ide while off duty, rushing to help someone in need.
The sh**ting occurred around 3 p.m. Tuesday inside a home near Mississippi 44 and Cole Thomas Road. McComb Police Chief Earnest Perry explained that Blake often received direct calls for help, even when off duty, and he rarely hesitated to respond.
D**dly Encounter Inside a Residence
According to Pike County Sheriff Wally Jones, the suspect, Clay Paulk, forced his way into the home before sh**ting Blake and Nicki Wilson, a woman with whom Paulk had a prior relationship.
Wilson survived and was rushed to the hospital, where she is expected to recover fully. Blake and Paulk were pronounced d**d at the scene. Investigators believe Paulk d**d from a self-inflicted g*nshot wound.
