Another Parkersburg detective shot and killed the man after he pointed the vehicle toward him and accelerated, according to the police. Steven Pflazgraf, 24, Parkersburg, has been identified as the deceased driver. Arrested for the incident was John and Jenna Ragalyi of New Matamoras. Stalnaker was taken to the hospital with some injuries, then released.
