[QUOTE="Obi-Wan, post: 391038, member: 709"] One question that has yet to been asked is. Why did the police decide it was worth the risk to turn this into a highspeed chase? The guy took his mothers vehicle without permission. They most likely knew he was having a mental breakdown. There was other choices they could have made They were tracking his vehicle via the mothers cell phone that was in the vehicle and could have followed from a distance. They had the plate # which would have given them the vin # and could have disabled the vehicle by using the Onstar system that the vehicle was equipped and also followed the vehicle that way. The officers choice to escalate the situation into a risky high speed chase resulted in the death of one of their own. I am not saying this guy is not at fault for the death I am only saying other options would have ended with different results. [/QUOTE]
