Southeastern Oklahoma State University defensive end Dylan Sebock was killed in a rollover crash early Thursday in Sherman, Texas. The driver of the vehicle, identified as his teammate and linebacker De’Taurean Johnson, has been arrested and charged with intoxication manslaughter.

Sebock, 23, was pronounced dead at the scene. Police responded to the crash, which occurred just before 1 a.m. on U.S. Highway 75, after receiving multiple calls. According to authorities, both occupants were ejected from the vehicle, with Sebock found approximately 15 feet from the service road.

Johnson was located lying in the roadway and initially fled the scene on foot before being detained. He was subsequently taken to a local hospital for medical treatment and is being held in the Grayson County Jail.
