A trooper stopped a late-model Chrysler sedan shortly after 10:30 a.m. in Lonoke County, but the driver fled, heading east along I-40. Police chased the car until it drove out of sight. Nearly an hour later, the other was spotted traveling east in the westbound lanes of the interstate. A head-on collision involving four vehicles happened about 11:30 a.m. The Chrysler struck a westbound International truck and a GMC Sierra. A fourth other in the vicinity, a Lincoln MKZ, then struck an impact cushion device. The Chrysler's driver, Russell Johnson, was killed.
