Police Chief Murphy Paul told reporters at a press conference Sims suffered a gunshot wound to the head after intervening in an altercation between his friend and Simpson.
Simpson left his glasses at the scene, which were recovered by cops and used to test DNA … which found a match with Simpson.
Chief Paul says … “Simpson was questioned and admitted to being in possession of a weapon, admitting to being on the scene and admitted to shooting Wayde as well.” The investigation is ongoing.
