Upon arrival, officers found a male victim with a flagpole through his head. The pole had entered the victim’s head beneath his jaw and exited the other side of his head near his right temple area. 

The American flag was still attached to the pole, police said. 

Witnesses told police they saw the suspect — identified as Clinton Collins — charge the victim and stab him in the head with the flagpole.
