How they died
Vehic/Purs
Troy police began chasing Brian Patrick Wiltfang's Eagle Talon about 11:44 p.m. after an officer tried to stop him on eastbound Big Beaver Road for driving without his headlights on. Wiltfang reportedly sped off at speeds of 80 mph. Another officer saw the Talon with the headlights on entering northbound I-75 near Rochester Road. According to police, Wiltfang turned the headlights off just before reaching Adams Road. Troy police said they stopped the pursuit, and notified Bloomfield Township and Auburn Hills police, who followed Wiltfang as he exited at Square Lake Road, made a U-turn, collided with a Traffic Safety Unit other and went the wrong way on northbound I-75. Police said Wiltfang drove on the shoulder to avoid three Troy police vehicles heading to the scene of the crash involving the Traffic Safety Unit. Wiltfang lost control of the car around 11:58 p.m., sliding sideways into a 2000 Volvo S40. He died at the scene. The Volvo's driver reportedly suffered non-life-threatening injuries.
