Suicide gun now does appear to match Chasen gun *

Andrew Blankstein at the L.A. Times has a law enforcement source who says, not for attribution, that the gun Harold Smith used to kill himself in Hollywood appears to match the gun used to kill publicist Ronni Chasen. So maybe Smith wasn't just bragging when he said someone paid him $10,000 to kill her? The Beverly Hills police have called a 3 p.m. press conference.

* BHPD update at 3 p.m.: "This is a preliminary match....We believe Mr. Smith acted alone. We don't believe it was a professional hit....most likely a robbery gone bad."
