Just curiuos...who were the people in the car? No mention in the article. Maybe there was a reason why they were fleeing the police.
Years ago my 20 year old stepson was a passenger of a car driven by a friend of his. His friend decided to run when he saw cop lights because he had warrants for unpaid traffic tickets. They ran into a tree during the chase and my stepson was killed.
Donald Rickard led police officers on a high-speed car chase that came to a temporary halt when Rickard spun out into a parking lot. Rickard resumed maneuvering his car, and as he continued to use the accelerator even though his bumper was flush against a patrol car, an officer fired three shots into Rickards car. Rickard managed to drive away, almost hitting an officer in the process. Officers fired 12 more shots as Rickard sped away, striking him and his passenger, both of whom died from some combination of gunshot wounds and injuries suffered when the car eventually crashed.
