Rep. Dan Johnson (R-Ky.) appears to have committed suicide by shooting himself on a bridge. The tragic incident came after allegations that he molested one of his daughter's friends resurfaced in an expose by the Kentucky Center for Investigative Reporting.

In a since-deleted Facebook post, Johnson said he had struggled with PTSD for 16 years, writing, "9-11-2001 NYC/WTC, PTSD 24/7 16 years is a sickness that will take my life, I cannot handle it any longer."
