How they died
Vehic/Purs
Joe Nowlin was killed when his truck was struck by a car fleeing police that was being driven by Nicholas Schilling, who also died. Schilling had allegedly stabbed the family dog and threatened a woman earlier that day. Schilling reportedly fled when officers tried to arrest him and was chased by police until his 2007 Ford Focus crossed the US 71 median, putting him southbound in the northbound lanes. The Focus car hit Nowling's Silverado pickup truck head-on, killing both drivers. Nowlin's 14-year-old son suffered serious injuries in the crash.
