    I doubt he has a good reason for kneeing him. Even if he was resisting, there's enough cops on top of him to restrain him without having to come to blows. 
    Yeah it boggles my mind.

    as usual citizen video comes part way in an altercation. provides actual text narrative, which may or may not be accurate. some actions seen are absolutlely egregious.

    I want to see first contact and everything that followed.

    I can't really hear them say "take off your backpack," but his arm motion definitely seems like that's what he was trying to do. 

    I'd like to see what happened before that. If he was just vaping, he doesn't need to be surrounded by four officers with tasers drawn.

    And according to the article, he was following policy on police chases.
    The new policy stipulated that officers would no longer give chase over minor offenses, such was the risk inherent with pursuits. The new policy states that chase may only be given for "a serious and violent felony or gross misdemeanor."
    I would think carjacking and robbery fits that. So I don’t see how one could argue following protocol to catch a violent criminal is abuse, even if it does end in tragedy. The robber should, and I assume will be, charged with his death.

    situational awareness should also cone into play in these cases

    not knowing the complete circumstances of this particular chase, I will say that just because policy allowed an action does mean it should be acted upon in every single instance.

    location, time of day, usual traffic patterns, am I the only one giving chase. just a few of the considerations I would hope would be taken into account.

    case in point, several years ago local deputy initiates a chase. on a secondary artery. one that runs through 90% residential area.  Lot of side streets and alleys. significant % of residents in that area are pedestrian or bicycle riders , as well as far to many kids. Mid day.....

    Deputy T-bones and kills a driver uninvolved in the chase , exercising right of way via light from a side street. Deputy was doing well over 100 mph.

    Situational awareness was lacking or ignored, cuz hot damn I got a chase. So given those facts in the moment, should that chase have occurred? Local PD had a 6 helicopter fleet then now down to 5. Dont recall if they were called in.

    A chase can be argued that it shouldn't occur.  Call in the helicopter, I'm all for that.

    If you want to pick apart what he should have done while in pursuit and having to make quick judgement decisions is where I have a problem with.

    Don't give a cop the right to chase then.  Ever.

    It's like saying the cop can only give chase on the freeway on weekends when there isn't any traffic.

    I'm ok with this.  Cops shouldn't be giving pursuit in their cars, ever.

    Police need to de-escalate situations.  I don't see how giving chase does that.


    There were 1,699 fatal crashes involving police chases from 2014-2018, killing at least 2,005 people – 1,123 were not the driver of the fleeing vehicle.

    Among those killed were:
    882 fleeing drivers
    337 fleeing vehicle passengers
    21 police officers
    765 bystanders (occupants of uninvolved vehicles or non-motorists)
    75 non-motorists (67 pedestrians, 5 bicyclists and 3 on another means of personal conveyance)


    Even when a fleeing suspect is caught, they are seldom charged with a violent crime.  California publishes a report each year in accordance with Senate Bill 719.  According to the most recent version of this report, only 15.6 percent of apprehended drivers were charged with a violent crime.

    Suspects flee the scene running red lights because they are innocent?

    Sure.

    Like above stated.  Abolish the chases.  Eye in the sky then road blacks and pit maneuvers when no one is around.

    This still isn't abuse though.
