According to the criminal complaint, while police were processing the Volkswagen, they found a black Nike shoe for a right foot wedged underneath the gas pedal. Investigators noted that each deceased victim had a right shoe that was not a black Nike.

Authorities also recovered a handgun inside the stolen vehicle.

Investigators later spoke with a family member of Lontrell Lee. She states that on January 20th sometime between 7:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. Lee came to her home. She claims he was "all scraped up" and wearing a single black Nike shoe on his left foot.

The complaint indicates he later told her he had been driving a stolen vehicle and had fled from the police and crashed into another car while attempting to make a turn. He told her that he saw train tracks near the collision scene, and he ran up the tracks to her residence.
