Casey White and Vicky White

Recaptured Alabama fugitive Casey White intended to have a shootout with law enforcement, and would have done so had pursuing officers not forced him to wreck in a ditch Monday in Evansville, Indiana, a sheriff said Tuesday.

The crash ended White's 11-day run on the lam with former corrections officer Vicky White, the woman accused of springing him from an Alabama county jail April 29 -- and who authorities preliminarily believe fatally shot herself after the wreck.

Officers who'd been tipped the pair were in Evansville gave chase after seeing them leave a motel in a Cadillac Monday, and had the pursuers not forced them into a ditch, "the fugitive was going to engage in a shootout with law enforcement," Vanderburgh County Sheriff Dave Wedding told reporters Tuesday, citing White's interviews with investigators after his capture.
