Default Police chase, family dead

http://au.news.yahoo.com/a/-/newshom...ends-in-crash/

More deaths from police chase, this one includes a 4 month old baby. IMO, the police ( :togo: ) chasing this thief should be charged or at least sacked from the force. When the chase became a threat to the public it should have been called off way before he ran a red light. Excessive speeds should have been enough to take other actions to stop this guy and the chase given up. But as with most police, catching a crim is far more important than the safety of the public. Persoanlly, I do NOT think the chase was stopped moments before the impact, that's a cover up, but police have laws which protect them and not the public.

- It takes two cars to have a pursuit, these police chose to engage in the pursuit as the guy was already speeding.

I'm so sad to hear this and my heart goes to the family. I only hope this incident shows exactly what can happen when you speed and when police chase cars at high speeds. The family should take legal action on the police force, and I hope they do, they are at fault IMO.
