Police said a trooper responded to a single-car accident on the westbound side of the interstate and found "a female lying on the westbound lanes of I-40, armed with a firearm." Medlin was driving a GMC Yukon XL when she veered off the road and crashed into an embankment. The Highway Patrol and the Johnston County Sheriff's Office withheld most information about the circumstances that led to the crash and shooting. Trooper J. L. Taylor and sheriff's deputy Taylor Davis shot and killed Medlin after she allegedly shot at them.
