In theory. De-escallation of a pursuit should have been the priority. Better strategies should have been used to stop the vehicle. Attempting to park a small mini-van to block a commercial vas was feckless in the highest order.
I'm not going to argue about this. This should be a case study because it is a failure in policy, execution, and outcome. |
We don't know that it was a failure of
policy, execution or outcome. None of us know that agency's pursuit policy, but aside that, this isn't football. There's no, "
Runaway UPS Box Truck" defensive play. Pursuits are fluid, unpredictable; there's no way to predict how a pursuit will terminate and it's impossible to prepare for a scenario that has options to infinity.
