Media summary: Amy Robbins died from her injuries eight days after a pickup fleeing police driven by Jeffrey Drechsler ran a red light and broadsided her car. Dreschler was also killed. At around 11p.m., police responded to a report that said Dreschler broke down his girlfriend's door with an ax and was holding her by the throat. When officer Brent Woodard arrived, Dreschler left in his 1987 F-150. Woodard gave chase and was joined by officer Pryor and her partner, officer Cornish, in a separate patrol car. Police insisted that Woodard and Pryor used their sirens and lights. Gabe Robbins was following his wife home in a separate car and saw the crash. He said his windows were open and that he didn't hear police sirens.
