Wheaton said he wanted to go get something to drink. While driving his girlfriend's truck on Interstate 30, investigators claim he was recklessly weaving in and out of traffic when they tried to pull him over. Instead, Wheaton took off and in the chase rammed two vehicles. That's when authorities opened fire, according to witnesses, shooting 30 to 40 bullets into the truck.
