DALLAS, Ga. - Police are investigating the apparent suicide of a former
drummer for Michigan rocker Ted Nugent.
Corporal Brandon Gurley with the Paulding County Sheriff's department says
59-year-old Clifford Davies was found dead from a gunshot wound in his
suburban Atlanta home Sunday.
Gurley says authorities are awaiting the results of an autopsy.
A woman who answered the phone at Davies' home said she wanted to check with
her family before commenting.
Reed Beaver, who owns Equametric Studio in Marietta where Davies was a chief
engineer, confirmed Davies was a drummer for Nugent and played on his
trademark recording "Cat Scratch Fever."
Beaver says Davies called him Saturday "extremely distraught" over medical
bills.
