Media summary: Sherrard and his friend Chaunsler Mitchell, 27, left Christy's Bar on Lake Waubesa on their motorcycles and headed toward another bar in Oregon. Angela Gutho, 22, rode with Sherrard, and Angela Vechinski, 25, rode with Mitchell. A sheriff's deputy, running his lights and siren on his way to a single-car accident, came upon the two motorcyclists, who refused to pull over and let him by. Mitchell sped away and the deputy pursued Sherrard's motorcycle at speeds topping 110 miles an hour. Once into Oregon, Sherrard lost control of his motorcycle and crashed at Jefferson Street. Sherrard was injured and Gutho was killed.
