Sacramento: 5 hurt in police chase

A vehicle being pursued by police for failure to yield crashed violently into a car carrying a family of four Monday afternoon in Sacramento, California. Two children were transported to UC Davis Medical Center, while their parents were taken to the Mercy San Juan Medical Center, over 15 miles away. According to the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department, none of the injuries were critical, though at first glance the accident seems to be the result of a hastily-considered police pursuit. If ‘failure to yield’ was indeed the only reason for the pursuit of a vehicle on a busy Sacramento street in the middle of the afternoon, than the police department was acting in a negligent manner. We at PursuitWatch.org are concerned over this apparent lack of judgment by the Sacramento Sherriff’s Department, and will be following the story as it develops.

How about we try to teach people to stop running from the police that way we don't have any accidents from police chases.....there is a thought.

If this family wouldn't have run from the police then we wouldn't have had this accident now would we???

Arrest and charge the parents for Felony evading, Child Endangerment, Child Abuse and Assault with a Deadly weapon - the car!

You guys are stepping away from the problem by criticizing the suspects that "they shouldn't run from the polic" but the aim of this site is to focus on safer techniques beyond that point:

Instead it's people like you that helps make police pursuits more dangerous by focusing on the past then the future. I mean somebody has got to do it. You guys have this mental block that dosen't let you go "out of the box" on the bad guys shouldn't run quotes I am glad you guys aren't part of my police department with your "trigger happy" attitude.

I wish I could collapse your comment flat and never see it again. That comment might as well kill an innoncent child.

Not all bad guys will run to the ends of the earth especially if the charges are small time felonys. The suspect will just look for a place nearby to lie low if he doesn't belive in using weapons to hurt people. I mean failour to Yield isn't worth the risk of killing somebody or hurting the suspect himself/Officer.

I could care less what happens to the suspect if they die or get injured so be it who cares its their own fault. If police are to break off all pursuits because you liberal people believe the crime doesn't warrant a chase, what do you think is going happen? Suspects are going to start to realize that the police are not going to chase them, causing more people to direspect the law and in fact put more innocent people in harms way...
