How they died
Vehic/Purs
About 8:51 p.m., officers tried to stop a 2006 Chevy Monte Carlo because they reportedly saw the driver using a cellphone. The car pulled over momentarily but fled before the officers could get out of their other. The Monte Carlo struck a Chevy Equinox, and officers said they saw several citizens pull Gerimiah Staple Jr. out of the passenger seat of the car and put him on the sidewalk to help him, but he died. The driver of the Monte Carlo ran off on foot.
