How they died

Pursuit

A pursuit began at about 1:50 p.m. when a man speeding while driving a gray Jeep on Interstate 81 in Botetourt County did not pull over when a trooper attempted to stop him. The driver was wanted in Pennsylvania, police said. The pursuit, which reached speeds in excess of 100 mph, continued through Roanoke County, Salem and into Montgomery County. During the chase, police said the suspect was in contact with dispatch and told them that he was armed. Police deployed spike strips, and the chase ended when police knocked the other off the road, causing the Jeep to crash. After the crash, the man reportedly shot and killed himself.
