A 20-year-old Excelsior Springs man was killed when he was ejected from a car that deputies were trying to stop Sunday night.
The man was identified as Stephen R. Harris.
The crash occurred about 9:25 p.m. along northbound New Garden Road about a half mile south of Missouri 10 in Ray County.
Ray County deputies attempted to stop the car as it was leaving a disturbance. However, a 21-year-old Excelsior Springs man driving the car lost control. The car ran off the left side of the road, struck an embankment and overturned, coming to rest on its top.
Harris was ejected from the car during the crash. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver fled on foot.
