The suspect surrendered after a 25-mile chase shortly before 1 a.m. Thursday in Custer County, Peoples said. Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Jessica Brown said the man was being held at the Custer County jail on a preliminary complaint of driving under the influence. More charges are likely.
Peoples said Thursday that authorities had not yet interviewed the suspect to determine a motive, but they don’t suspect anyone was specifically targeted.
At least two other vehicles were hit by gunfire but those drivers escaped injury, Brown said. She said it’s early in the process but investigators believe the man picked his victims indiscriminately.
