The Oklahoma Highway Patrol said he fled on foot near Chandler, Oklahoma.

OHP was working on a disabled vehicle that was partially obstructing the outside lane. The suspect swerved to miss the disabled vehicle, and instead hit another car with a man, woman and two children in it. The suspect was the only person in his car.

OHP says he had a duffle bag in his hand as he ran off, but does not believe there is a danger to the public.
