Here's press release about death of #NASCAR driver Dick Trickle: Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office News Release
Self-Inflicted Gun Shot Takes Life of Racing Legend

May 16, 2013

Lincolnton, NC – Retired race car driver Richard “Dick” Trickle, 71, died today from an apparent self inflicted gun shot wound.

The incident occurred at 12:02 p.m. at Forest Lawn Cemetery on Highway 150 East in Boger City.

The Lincoln County Communications Center received a call apparently from the victim that “there would be a dead body and it would be his “. Communications Center workers tried to place a return call to the number but did not get an answer.

The first emergency units arriving on the scene located the body lying near the victim’s pickup truck.

Trickle was a Lincoln County resident and had lived here since the early 1990’s

Terrible and shocking news. His name may have been a punchline, but he was a hell of racecar driver.
