How they died
Vehic/Purs
Police said they responded to a report of a larceny in progress at a home construction site and stopped two trucks that appeared to be loaded with construction material. Two men were arrested without incident, but John Steven Moffitt and a passenger reportedly sped away in a 1988 flatbed Chevrolet truck. According to police, Moffitt reached speeds of 60 mph before running a red light and broadsiding a car carrying 8-year-old Travis Miles. Miles died at the scene of the 8:30 p.m. crash. Moffitt, 38, was charged with first-degree murder.
