How they died
Vehic/Purs
Cesar Lira, 33, made a dramatic escape in Wisconsin the day before he crashed and killed his wife, Marilyn Ordonez, 27, and injured his 6-year-old daughter, while fleeing police. Lira jumped handcuffed from a wheelchair as he was being taken into a Milwaukee hospital and leaped into the open window of a car that sped away. Troopers in Oklahoma had stopped Lira for an improper lane change, but he sped off. As he attempted to exit at Bristow, he rolled off a curve and down an embankment. He and his daughter were ejected from the other as it rolled.
