Double Olympian, world championship medalist.
62 year old Emmit King got in an argument, he and his foe pulled out weapons of war and killed each other.
‘Authorities said King and Wells knew each other and were arguing when they both pulled out guns and fired. No other details were immediately made available.’

US Olympic team member, but not an Olympian. He did not actually compete in the games.
Good thing everybody was armed, huh?
Saw him help Alabama break the world best 1600 medley relay recors at the Drake Relays with Calvin Smith, cant remember who ran the 400 leg and Venezuelan William Wuyke on the 800 anchor.
Just another day in 'murica where life is cheap.
Damn.
60 and 62 years old. Friends.
Tragedy.
America.
