A man who died in a deputy-involved shooting in Poway following a pursuit was identified on Friday.
Trenton Lohman, 38, of Lakeside led deputies on a pusuit through Poway early Thursday after jumping into a deputy's patrol car and driving off, according to the San Diego County Sheriff's Department (SDSO).
Lohman had been on active parole from the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
People who knew Lohman told NBC 7 that he had been trying to turn his life around and they don't know what went wrong.
Lohman was found dead behind the wheel of a vehicle which he had carjacked from a private citizen after abandoning the patrol car.
According to the Medical Examiner's Office, the cause of death was a thoracic gunshot wound.
