The officer pursued the driver, Travis Rheineck, but cancelled the pursuit due to Rheineck's speed and erratic driving.

Rheineck then crashed into two trees and a house. He was ejected and killed.

The Hennepin County Medical Examiner's toxicology report showed Rheineck had a blood alcohol level of 0.22, nearly three times the legal limit.
