A friendc of mine in DC sent me this one on May 31, from, of all papers, the Washington Post:

A teenager died dead after an attack in Suitland

I suspect the editor was dithering between

A teenager died after an attack in Suitland

and

A teenager dead after an attack in Suitland.

I did not see the headline, so I cannot assert that it was as reported to me. I doubt the initial article, something that is not used in headlines.
