SANTAQUIN, Utah — After spending nearly a week in the hospital, the truck driver accused of killing Sgt. Bill Hooser was booked into jail on Saturday.
While the trooper was looking at the truck's electronic log he received from Jayne, court records state that a woman"emerged from the sleeper section of the cab and jumped out of the passenger side door." She then ran to the back of the trailer and put her hands up. Hooser spoke with her, and then made a gesture"indicating they needed to remove the driver and detain him."
Later, in an interview with police, the woman said she had been riding voluntarily with Jayne in his truck up until they got into a fight at a truck stop in Beaver. She said he drove off, but then returned and tried to convince her to come with him multiple times, but she refused. She said during his final attempt, he threatened her with a knife and"chemical bear spray," and she got back in the truck due to his threats.
Jayne then drove to Vernal, where UHP troopers spotted the truck after the owners reported it stolen. Troopers said he fled from them at speeds of up to 100 miles per hour and swerved toward oncoming vehicles. Troopers performed a PIT maneuver , causing Jayne to lose control and crash. He was then taken into custody, but had to be taken to the hospital to be treated for serious injuries.
