    Oklahoma Highway Patrol Trooper Eric Smith fumbled with his handgun and the cord used to deploy a set of spike strips alongside Interstate 40 near McLoud as an eluding driver approached. His partner trained his rifle on the fleeing SUV in the morning light. It was around 8:50 a.m., and the roadway was active with other motorists. With one hand, Smith tugged the spike strips into the westbound lanes in an attempt to puncture the tires of the fleeing vehicle.
