The Seward County Sheriff’s Office said deputies tried to traffic-stop a vehicle heading west on I-80 at 3:11 p.m., but the driver turned around and drove the wrong way on the interstate. SCSO said the vehicle crossed over into the eastbound lanes near the Milford exit and continued on I-80. Deputies apparently followed him head-on in the wrong direction at high speeds until it came to a stop on I-80 near the Pleasant Dale exit. According to deputies, the passenger exited the vehicle but the driver reportedly refused. Deputies claim they saw an unspecified weapon in his hand and shot and killed the man. No video or eyewitnesses can be located so far.
