An Ohio State University student and a man suspected of kidnapping her at gunpoint were shot dead in a police chase in Kentucky, officials said Tuesday.

Skylar Williams, 20, was kidnapped at gunpoint at 11:45 a.m. Monday from the school’s parking lot by a man identified as Ty’rell Pounds, who forced her into his red Dodge Challenger and took off, OSU’s Department of Public Safety said.

Later Monday, Kentucky State Police got a call about a woman asking people for help at a gas station in Gallatin County who was then forced into a car.

They chased the car on I-71 in Oldham County until it left the highway and stopped on a ramp.

A trooper heard gunfire coming from inside the vehicle, “which he perceived as an immediate deadly threat to himself and the female passenger,” police said.

“The trooper drew his service weapon and fired at which time the suspect was struck resulting in his death at the scene,” cops said in a release. “During this event, the female passenger was struck by at least one round of gunfire.”

Police confirmed the suspect was Pounds, 24, and that the victim was Williams, both of Mansfield, Ohio. They are investigating.

Williams and Pounds had been going through custody issues, Pounds’ roommate told cops, according to ABC News.

In September 2018, Williams accused Pounds of sexual assault. She filed an order of protection against him Jan. 3 after he tried pulling her into his car at a gas station.
