That's Chicago! Pure classic story! Now, I wonder if the driver was also running from the cops and/or driving a stolen car, had drugs, warrants, a body in the trunk, just done a dive-by... Maybe all of the above. What a place!
I thought the Chi PD was ordered not to chase suspects. Especially suspects of color. I see Rev. Al beating the war drums and a 6 figure law suit coming down soon.
From Second City Cop blog: The usual suspect was out of his stolen car at a car wass 2h when police pulled up. He ran and was run over by an 18 wheel truck that didn't stop. The cops involved are on a 30 day suspension to investigate whether they violated CPD policy by chasing the thief. John in Indy

ReplyDeleteActually it was a truck that hit him and probably didn’t even know it
DeleteKarma in action. I am for capitol punishment for car jackers.
ReplyDeleteChicago, ya' say? So I'm guessing the driver and any passengers were charged in the incident...

ReplyDeleteI say hunt down the driver and give him a medal.
ReplyDeleteI thought chicago passed a law where the cops could not chase a criminal. Looking for to the youtube video.
