Wow, now that was a mad minute.
I hope everyone that views this can try to understand that if you feel emotional excitement or apprehension in watching this, imagine what its like to be in it.
When a pursuit terminates, you can’t just turn off the anger at these idiots like a switch. The officer pursuing in this video actually took it so personal, he did dangerous things to apprehend this guy.
Also, in an urban environment there is no such thing as a safe backstop and the vast majority of times, you have no time to even assess that, as your attention is on the suspect.
If you asked the officer pursuing this guy if he saw the pedestrians on the sidewalk, he would say no, not at all. Tunnel vision happens, its almost unavoidable.
He was doing OK until he went past Trump Plaza, then the hammers came down.
