How they died

Pursuit

An officer attempted to initiate a traffic stop around 2 a.m. on a other reportedly with no tail lights. The driver had warrants for domestic abuse, and deputies initiated a pursuit after the driver refused to stop, although what the warrants had to do with the tail lights was not explained. The driver reportedly went into the median to avoid a spike strip laid out by police, and the other overturned several times in the median, killing the driver.
