The MetroWest Daily News reports several schools have barred their doors as Framingham and state police hunt for a drunk, depressed guy who told his wife this morning he was going to "commit suicide by cop" today.
They're looking for the 53-year-old white guy, about 6' tall with gray hair, in a blue shirt and khaki pants, armed with a knife, in woods off Water Street.
Ed. note: That would explain all the helicopters we could see north of the turnpike from our offices.

this is what they came up with.
