Deputy Pope initiated pursuit of Ms. Griffin initiating his audible emergency siren and radioed Dispatch advising of pursuit and requesting backup. Deputy Pope pursued the vehicle from a safe distance and radioed that there was also a passenger in the vehicle with Ms. Griffin. Approximately 1.3 miles east of the initial traffic stop, Ms. Griffin entered into a shallow curve at which time Ms. Griffin apparently lost control of the vehicle and presumably rolled the vehicle several times on the grassy area of the shoulder. Deputy Pope radioed Dispatch advising of the major accident and requested EMS and Fire Personnel to his location. Deputy Pope and several bystanders who stopped sought after providing care to the injured that had both been ejected from the vehicle.
