How they died

Vehic/Purs

Six people were killed and several others injured after a police chase in Edna. According to police, officers tried to stop a 2003 Ford Explorer for a traffic violation at around 1:30 a.m. The driver allegedly wouldn't stop, and a chase ensued. The SUV fled north on Highway 59 feeder, turned around at the dead end, then eventually turned onto Highway 59 northbound at County Road 300. Police said the driver appeared to over-correct, rolling the SUV several times. A woman and three men, including the driver, were ejected from the other and died at the scene. Two people died en route to the hospital. Seven others were hospitalized. Two people fled the crash on foot and were arrested. 16 people were reported to have been in the SUV.
