The girlfriend of a man who stole work truck in Gilbert and led troopers on an I-17 chase says he was an Army veteran dealing with PTSD.

Brad Moore, 29, drove nearly 95 miles before he drove off the road and died near Camp Verde Tuesday.

“That’s not him at all. I would have never expected something like that ever,” said the woman who asked we not use her name.

“We lost such a beautiful soul. He had the most contagious laugh and smile. It just lit up the room,” she said.
