Man kills woman, then himself, on I-75


LEBANON, Ohio (AP) — Authorities say a man who brought flowers to his ex-girlfriend’s home fatally stabbed her, then died of self-inflicted wounds after an Interstate 75 chase in southwest Ohio.

The woman died at a hospital after being stabbed at her apartment in Lebanon on Wednesday evening. Police say the man stabbed himself repeatedly after Warren County deputies ended a subsequent high-speed chase by flattening his tires with a “stop stick.”

They say speeds reached 130 mph Wednesday night in the chase of his Chevrolet Camaro some 30 to 40 miles north of Cincinnati.
