How about fleeing arrest?
Nothing in this story indicates that it would be anything other than a misdemeanor 520.100 Fleeing or evading police in the second degree. "(b) While operating a motor vehicle with intent to elude or flee, the person knowingly or wantonly disobeys a recognized direction to stop his vehicle, given by a person recognized to be a peace officer."
Kentucky does not apply the felony murder rule. And most jurisdictions that still use it only apply it to felonies such as rape, burglary, robbery, kidnapping and arson.
