Death of soldier's brother ruled suicide (no end to pain bush is causing)

Authorities have ruled that the death of Justin "Paul" Byers, the brother of a soldier killed in Iraq, was a suicide.

Justin Byers, 19, of Schleswig, died Monday night after he was hit by a pickup truck when he walked out of ditch one mile west of Vail on U.S. Highway 30.

The Crawford County medical examiner announced the death was ruled a suicide on the same day Byers' family held a funeral for his brother, Sgt. Casey Byers.

Casey Byers was killed in Iraq on June 11 when a bomb detonated under his armored Humvee. The funeral was at the Iowa National Guard armory in Denison. He was to be buried later at Arlington National Cemetery.

The circumstances at the scene of the accident led officials to conclude that Byers' death was an "intentional act," Crabb said. No alcohol was found at the scene, but a toxicology report wasn't yet available.
