Police were seeking Rebecca’s husband, Julio Hernandez Mata, in the incident. The 32-year-old fled the area in a pickup but was found and chased by local authorities. Investigators say the pickup rolled over after a trooper bumped the fleeing vehicle.
State investigators say officers from local authorities at some point fired at the suspect after he reportedly refused to comply with law enforcement. Mata was pronounced dead at the scene near Pocasset.
