AND WHEN THINGS TURNED INTO A SHOOTOUT SOUTH OF TOWN, A TROOPER FIRED BACK, KILLING THE MAN WHO SPED THROUGH HERE MINUTES BEFORE. CUSHING POLICE DEPARTMENT HAS STOPPED THE VEHICLE, AND APPARENTLY THE SUBJECT HAD IDENTIFIED HIMSELF. BUT HE WOULDN’T GIVE HIS DRIVER’S LICENSE. THE OFFICER SAW A FIREARM IN THE VEHICLE, AND THEN THE PURSUIT STARTED.
