According to the affidavit, on Jan. 14th Officer Kyle Coclasure was dispatched to the 3200 block of Ranch Drive to speak with the cousin of Stephen Hogan.

The affidavit states that Hogan lived with his cousin and Officer Coclasure was originally going to the residence to discuss eviction options with the two. Before the officer arrived another call came in stating that Hogan was attempting to steal his cousin’s truck.

Upon arrival, Hogan was sitting inside a red truck with the lights on and Officer Coclasure yelled at the individual to exit the vehicle. The affidavit states he complied and identified himself as Stephen Hogan. He told the officer he lived there and he was not trying to steal the truck.

According to the affidavit, Hogan’s cousin told the officer that Hogan had a gun in the residence and that he was a convicted felon and should not have a weapon in his possession. Hogan advised that he was on parole out of the state of California. At this point, the officer took possession of the 9 mm pistol. The cousin advised he also had a gun in his other truck that he had been driving at that time, this is a different vehicle than the one Hogan had been sitting in.

The affidavit states that Officer Coclasure gave options to both men and left the scene.

The next day, according to the affidavit, Officer Coclasure received a call and headed back to Ranch Drive and after making contact with the victim, determined that Hogan had stolen his 9 mm and his 2015 black Chevy Silverado truck.

According to the affidavit, Officer Coclasure attempted to locate the Chevy occupied by Hogan. At this point, Officer Lindsey also responded to multiple reports of a black Chevy shooting at vehicles. One of the vehicles was a semi-truck and Officer Lindsey headed down Hubbard Rd. and noticed the black Chevy coming towards him head on. He stated he had to make evasive maneuvers to avoid colliding with the vehicle.

The affidavit states that the truck had already passed the semi-truck and the chase began East on Hubbard Rd. from W Street. Officer Lindsey activated his sirens and the pursuit was clocking in at 90 mph.

“Due to the fact that the subject had a weapon I began moving my vehicle from side to side in case he was to try and shoot at me as well!” said Deputy Lindsey.

According to the affidavit, the chase continued East on Hubbard Rd. until Hwy. 77(14th St.) where Hogan turned South. He passed every major intersection through Ponca City past Grand Ave. and eventually came to a rolling stop going five mph with his hands out of the window at the intersection of 14th and almost Otoe Ave.

The affidavit states that Hogan was given commands to exit the vehicle. Officers, using their ballistic shields, ended up having to unlock the door to the truck and then arrested the driver and took him into custody. They retrieved the 9 mm handgun which had five rounds in the magazine still and it had a double feed malfunction on it. The affidavit states that Hogan is in fact on parole out of California and is a convicted felon.

Deputy Lindsey, according to the affidavit, made contact with the semi-truck driver who explained that the black truck stopped in the roadway just before the Hwy. 60 overpass and he went around him, at which time the driver of the black truck went back around him and this is when he began getting shot at and his driver’s window was broken.

According to the affidavit, the two bullet holes were just under the driver side window where the victim was sitting. According to the affidavit, officers determined Hogan was trying to kill the driver of the semi-truck.

Stephen Hogan was booked into the Kay County Jail and while waiting to be booked in, Hogan rushed to the sink to wash his hands. The affidavit states that he did this so that no gunshot residue kit could be obtained. He was also charged with Destruction of Evidence.

Stephen Hogan is being held on a $1,000,000 bond and he is set for an Initial Appearance on Jan. 22 at 9 a.m. in Kay County District Court.
