Trooper Summers and Trooper Young had been assigned to participate in a search for two McAlester Penitentiary escapees being sought for multiple murders committed after their escape in their flight through six states. Trooper Summers and Trooper Young encountered the two escapees on a county road near Kenefic and were killed in the resulting gun fight. Both escapees were shot and killed in Caddo by troopers later that same day. Also see: Dark day in OHP History May 26, 1978 by Trp. Bruce Schulze #180 |
