How they died
Vehic/Purs
A high speed chase began after a state trooper tried to stop Paul Korkowski's 1998 Ford Focus for speeding on I-35 in Franklin County. A HCSD deputy deployed stop sticks at the 126 mile marker, disabling the car's left front tire. According to police, Korkowski then turned off his headlights and continued into Story County. Near 116 mile marker 116, Korkowski reportedly crossed the median and drove southbound in the northbound lanes. He passed several vehicles before hitting a semi truck head on. Korkowski died at the scene. The semi driver was not physically injured.
