A Stephens County Sheriff’s deputy was not seriously injured following a roll-over accident in Velma.
Trooper Thomas Winton with the Oklahoma Highway Patrol said Deputy Casey Miller had some bruises and scrapes, but nothing major.
Miller was taken to the hospital to be checked on as a precautionary measure, Winton said.
“He was trying to catch up to a vehicle that had some suspected stolen property,” Winton said. “He met a car on this curve and then ran off the roadway a little to the right and over-corrected.”
Because of the accident, the suspect was not apprehended, but the sheriff’s department will continue to search for the vehicle and the suspect.
