Popular Post glennb6 Posted January 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 26, 2020 live fire at a moving vehicle in a populated area??? Unless the fleeing perps were shooting at the cops first, the police showed gross negligence. might I assume the neither the perp or the police were observing the speed limit either (save the comments)? How's about follow, track, and road block as a logical action versus high-speed pursuit and weapons fire that most obviously endangered the public (who the police are supposed to be protecting in the first place)? 3rd world antics. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTP defame themselves every time they go to work (which is not often!) Most jurisdictions outside the US do not shoot at cars. There is very little to be gained. Maybe the capture of a car thief or drug offender, but the risk is too high for the reward. Even pursuing cars in a built up area has very little upside unless the suspect poses an imminent threat. the consequence in this case was not just foreseeable, but indeed it was quite likely. If they followed procedures then the procedures should be changed. Edited January 26, 2020 by Mick501 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newnative Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 If that is your 'procedure' it needs to be changed immediately. And, run your cops through proper police training again while you're at it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"if the cops had shot in a front tire he would not have lost control". How do you know that? You're not seriously trying to say that front end blow-outs never cause loss of control, are you?

A flat front tire does not cause loss of steering control; the rim of the flat or burst tire will leave two trails in the roadway and the vehicle will stop very quickly There's more to loss of control than steering issues, braking for instance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need me to "say what you didn't write", you did that yourself. You didn't use the word "rare", unless you're just editing your posts now. Here's two very specific claims of yours and neither uses "rare", or "rarely", or anything similar! "... if the cops had shot in a front tire he would not have lost control of his vehicle" "...

Other damage had been caused moments earlier as the chase proceeded through crowded streets. It may have started away from a busy area... but the chased perused it into a built up area and ended very badly !!! If those are the procedures maybe they need tweaking a little!

Front tyres aren't accessible when chasing from behind. It wan't too well a planned sting, or insufficient resources to box him in. I was thinking the same, a sting would have involved being able to close off the roads and box him in, plus the guy must have easily worked out it was a sting, police in plain sight no doubt, haircut gives em away.
