How they died
Pursuit
Devan Michael Potter, 22, and his two passengers, Ryen Swiatly, 24, and Ashley Slama, 23, had gone out to Bobbers Island Grill. They left around 2 a.m. and proceeded to drive around. Sauk County Deputy Matthew Tate stopped the Acura belonging to Potter due to a loud exhaust and a tail light that had gone out. Potter quickly drove away from Tate, who reportedly did not pursue the other. About 10 minutes later, the deputy, who did not pursue the other, informed other law enforcement that he found the other about a mile east of Gillem Road on its roof in the ditch. Salma was killed. Potter received charges of fleeing an officer which resulted in death, homicide by negligent operation of a other, knowingly driving without a valid license and causing a death, possession of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia.
