'Suicide By Cop' Leads Soldier On Chase Of His Life

In the fall of 2010, NPR and ProPublica published an investigation about five soldiers who suffered traumatic brain injuries from the same explosion in Iraq. The report also explored the cognitive and emotional problems they've been having ever since. Twelve days later, one of the soldiers, Brock Savelkoul, piled an armload of guns and semi-automatic weapons into his pickup and led police on a high-speed chase across North Dakota.
