Media summary: Ten-month-old Ashley M. Riley was killed in a crash while her mother was fleeing from a state trooper. According to the patrol, the trooper stopped the car at about 9 p.m. because a desk clerk at a WaKeeney motel had reported her concern for the children's welfare after the woman had asked for directions. Ashley's mother reportedly sped away from the trooper, crossed the median, oncoming lanes, south shoulder and ditch before vaulting over a ravine and rolling end over end. Ashley, who police said was in an infant car seat that had not been fully attached to its base, was pronounced dead at a hospital.
