A trucking company trainee lost his life in Garvin County, Oklahoma, on Wednesday during a police-involved incident that also left a deputy injured.
The incident began on the morning of October 4 as Cleveland County Deputy Sean Steadman attempted to pull over a Volkswagon Jetta driven by 25 year old Kameron Jenkins on I-35 northbound at Exit 60, according to an affidavit.
When Jenkins refused to stop, Steadman performed a tactical maneuver with his cruiser to stop the Jetta.
Gunfire was then exchanged between Steadman and Jenkins.
During the police shootout, Julion Diaz and Gwaun Frierson were traveling north on I-35 near Exit 60 in a dump truck. Frierson, who was in the passenger seat, was struck by a bullet and killed.
Steadman was struck on the chin by gunfire. He was taken to a hospital and is expected to survive.

A passenger in the Jetta, Markiesha Williams, was taken into police custody.
Jenkins fled on foot and is still at large.
News9 identified Frierson as a trainee at Pioneer Transport who had just started working for the company that week.
