To answer that final conundrum, “We are working to gather more information about the suspect and the reason for the pursuit.” Answer = the driver is an idiot.
Why do the police continue to endanger the public by chasing people? We need to start prosecuting the officers.
@Told Tha Troof. Why do idiots continue fleeing from officers at high speed if they have nothing to hide?? Seems you are implying it must be ok as long as you or your family is not killed by the fleeing idiot.
Please don’t reproduce! @toldthatroof
The better why is why do people run from the law so much more frequently now? Never seen so much of it in my life. The one that runs from the law is the one causing the danger.
Why do idiots keep running from the police. It’s not the police endangering the public, it’s the scum that the police have to deal with. It’s simple, just pull over and comply.
“It’s not the police endangering the public, it’s the scum that the police have to deal with.”
That has got to be the stupidest comment I’ve ever heard. Do you live under a rock? Police are the most entitled scum on the face of the earth.
Actually the Police do get charged in some cases. If they do not follow policies and procedures and cause a wreck they will be charged. Although your statement is completely said out of frustration, I wanted to educate you on how it happens. If you hate the Police so much, I suggest going to the local agency and request a ride-a-long with them during one of their shifts. You may have a different outlook on things…
Probably an illegal alien trying to avoid deportation.
I was on I95 when this went by.
The public wasnt in danger, and if dude was avoiding ICE he was driving the wrong way. I wish muppets couldnt leave comments.
It is easy for someone to hide behind their screen name and say that we should be prosecuting the officers who are criminals.criminals will be criminals and idiots will be idiots.
There was another high speed chase over the weekend on clayton blvd.# 70 hwy towards Smithfield , it was 7 cops cars 1 cop motorcycle 1 police helicopter all going the same way for that high speed chase, but no news reported that tho.
I was injured due to high speed chase 2 blocks from my home in a residential area. Motorcycle hit me going 150 MPH, my car spinning at the intersection, airbags going off, windows blown out. Almost 4 months ago and still in pain.
