    Kind of confused by that last question but since I answered you question above. He was driving to work and turned on the radio and then pulled over and shot himself.

    Had he done something at work that he could be in trouble for?

    He would have been in trouble with the law. Did he do something illegal and he killed himself to avoid being arrested?

    Ok, to give you a summary in my own words:

    A man was driving to work and he turned on the radio. He heard something that made him worry and figured he would get in trouble with the law. He pulled over and shot himself.

    This is the questions you guys asked and I answered them yes. So that should give you a pretty good summary. I didn't tell you anything new above I thought I would put it together for you though.

    So we need to figure out what he did?

    Did he steal money?

    Did he hurt another person?

    Was he planning to commit a crime, but hadn't done it yet?

    Was he expecting the radio to announce something happened in connection with his crime, but when it wasn't on the radio he knew he had failed somehow?

    He was driving to work and heard on the radio that there was a leak at the nuclear power plant that he worked at, causing multiple deaths. He realized that he had made a foolish mistake, causing the leak, and then to avoid trouble, he ended it all.

    (It's not an official no, but this one will drive you crazy :p)

    Does the man work at a studio?

    Did the man expect a song, but another song was broadcasted?

    It's fun! :p

    We know he hurt at least one person. Did he hurt more than one person?

    Was the person killed? Kidnapped? Injured? Sent to the hospital?

    Was the person a relative of his? A friend? A stranger? Someone he worked with?

    No, the first time I came across lateral puzzles was here, when morgaine started this :)

    Clarify the studio part. (this might give a big hint)
    Was it a song? (as opposed to music played by instrument only)

    Is he the one who sponsors the musician/singer? (depending on my previous question)

    Was the killed person his wife?

    Is the gender of the dead person relevant?

    Is his motive of killing this person relevant?
