By
ROCK HILL, S.C. - A man wanted by federal authorities on a counterfeiting charge fatally shot himself as police officers tried to arrest him at his mother&#39;s home, authorities said. <br> <br> Clinton Dean Malcolm, 40, was found Friday and it appears he died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head, York County Coroner Doug McKown said. <br> <br> Malcolm was wanted by the Secret Service on a counterfeiting charge and in Georgia on a contempt charge. <br> <br> He was living with his mother, Rock Hill Police Detective Steve Thompson said. Malcolm had bi-polar disorder and was not taking his medications, his mother told police. <br> <br> Investigators entered the home and told the mother they had a warrant. Malcolm was in an upstairs bedroom and about five minutes later he shot himself in the head with a .45-caliber semi-automatic handgun, police said. <br> <br> Police don&#39;t know why he killed himself.
