Veteran TV newsman and former University of Alabama football player Christopher Sign died Saturday morning in an apparent suicide, according to police.
At 8:13 a.m. Saturday, the Hoover 911 center received a call of a person down at a residence on Scout Trace. Hoover police and fire personnel arrived to find the 45-year-old Sign dead.
Hoover police Lt. Keith Czeskleba said the death is being investigated as a suicide.
ABC 33/40 in 2017 announced Sign was returning to Birmingham from Phoenix as the evening anchor, replacing Dave Baird after he retired.
Sign co-anchored broadcasts with Brenda Ladun and Pam Huff.
“Our deepest sympathy is shared with Chris’s loving family and close friends,” said Sinclair Broadcast Group Vice President and General Manager Eric S. Land.
“We have lost a revered colleague whose indelible imprint will serve forever as a hallmark of decency, honesty and journalist integrity. We can only hope to carry on Chris’s legacy. May his memory be for blessing,” Land said.
Sign, who grew up near Dallas, previously worked as a reporter for ABC 33/40 from 2000 to 2005, where he covered the 2001 Brookwood mine disaster and hurricanes Charlie, Frances and Ivan.
While a reporter and morning anchor at ABC affiliate KNXV-TV in Phoenix, Sign broke the story of the June 2016 secret tarmac meeting between former President Bill Clinton and then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch.
Sign wrote a book about his experience called Secret on the Tarmac.
Sign also won a 2014 Emmy Award for breaking news for his coverage of the shooting of two Phoenix police officers, as well as an Edward R. Murrow Award for spot news, for his coverage of the search for the “Baseline Killer” and “Serial Shooter” who terrorized Phoenix in the summer of 2016.

Yes. Fu BC. FU HC.
This guy had nothing new to disclose. Tarmac story was history-no one remembers.
I love that.
I don’t believe it was suicide after further research on his past. This better be investigated to the fullest extent.
Really? How do you know?

PING...
Alamo girl no longer keeping the list.
Really? How do you know?
I don’t. Epstein offed himself-that’s the report. If the parents of Seth what’s his name don’t want to re-live it then the motive was robbery. If these are pros committing murder you’ll never know.

Hmmm.....
If it was Arkincide Hillary waited 5 years to get him. She seems to be more of a hurry than that.

Prof. Michael Adams (Un. of No. Carolina - Wilmington) resigns/retires after harassment but getting a good legal settlement. Plans to do things. Suddenly a suicide. Not buying it!
My friend Phil Haney, ex CIAer who exposed Obama treachery/Clinton treason, suddenly kills himself. NO WAY IN HELL! Phil was a fighter and intended to go out as a fighter for freedom. One of the biggest threats to both the Clinton crime family and the Obama traitorous clique.
There have been a few other very questionable “suicides” or “murders”, esp. that of Seth Rich - street thugs almost never shoot anyone in the back, esp. a double-tap. I’ll leave the Vince Foster “suicide” aside for now.
I agree. I can’t fathom him committing suicide. Too much to live for and nothing to die for. What a loss. What a GD loss.
