Undersheriff Kenneth Miller was shot and killed while investigating reports of a man attempting to stop traffic north of Turpen, Oklahoma, at 1:00 am. A citizen who went to Undersheriff Miller's home to report the incident was also shot and killed when he rode to the scene with Undersheriff Miller.
The two suspects stole Undersheriff Miller's patrol car and fled the scene. They then stole another truck but were arrested the following day in Utah after a high-speed pursuit.
Undersheriff Miller was survived by his wife.
