Media summary: 14-year-old Evan Lee Dame was one of four people in a car that reportedly slid into the path of a patrol car driven by Deputy David Miller. Police said Miller was responding at around 10:40 p.m. to an emergency call. Conditions were reportedly poor—it was snowing and the county road was ice-covered and slippery—when Miller's cruiser struck the car on the passenger side. Dame, who was in the back seat, died at a hospital the next day. Another passenger in the car suffered serious injuries. Miller and his passenger, reserve officer David Quarry, were treated and released.
