[Video] 7/1/16 Chicago Police Chase Ends in Fatal Crash

[dberz94]

They pull him over @ 4:10 and the crash begins @ 8:45. I'm stunned pedestrians weren't hit in the process.

Absolutely shocking footage to say the least. The crash is shown from the state police cruiser following the suspects' vehicle before CPD collided with the suspects at 124th and Union in West Pullman. Two of the four suspects died and the officers survived with non life-threatening injuries.

Couldn't the police have asked them politely to slow down?

Seriously, that's a wild chase. Bet the officers were belted and the perps weren't.

If they're dumb enough to run I don't think they'll be smart enough to slow down.

what if the police say please?

That was really intense. I'm surprised the state trooper kept calling in all the streets they were chasing down. I would have thought by now. Cruisers would have GPS and dispatch could follow them and relay the info to other officers. That is a lot to deal with. Dealing with your emotions, adrenaline, high speeds and talking into the radio giving their position.

I'm glad the officers were ok. Too bad all the perps did not die.

I remember seeing this on the news. Crazy chase, and that crash

 

[RICH17]

INSANE

 

[BrianG]

Holy crap! What hit the perps? A police truck? They looked like they were really hurting after that, but what a way for the chase to end!

Always a Grand Prix...

Wonder if that Caprice was the 6.0L

Holy fuck was that crash intense

Looked like a newer Exploder.

Holy shit

Who died? The suspects or an officer in the truck?

This gives me a mix of emotions but the strongest one is hate. I have such contempt for the type of person that puts so little value on life that it means nothing for them to risk everyone else's.

Two of the four suspects, no officers.

I'm curious why the officers kept giving chase, at such high speeds, through a residential area, including down alleys...

I think they were armed robbery suspects.

Glad the cops are ok, couple less career criminals around makes for a better society and saved taxpayer dollars.

Also, looks like a clear case of police brutality. I'm not sure why they had to resort to such lethal force. Instead of ramming the perp's car, they should have tried to taze the driver through an open window.

These officers need to be shown how to de-escalate the situation.

Idk the officers in the SUV probably thought the suspects, and chase, were elsewhere. I don't think cops are taught to ram someone in an urban area, especially at that speed.

 

[boostedguy05]

I love how the lead state trooper was talking to them. All friendly were brother, all perps were mother fuckers.

 

[cacicgtp7]

Seems to me like the SUV ramming could have easily been accidental. CPD was hauling ass through the streets and their car just happened to be also hauling through the cross street. I'm assuming either the CPD explorer, or the GP blew a stop sign there (or maybe both).

My 2 cents as every one including the CPD seemed surprised by what just happened.

Sarcasm y'all!

Hi - My name is blakbearddelite.

Everyone else knows that I'm making fun of our liberal friends that are always claiming excessive force when handled by the cops. They would have said, 'You should have just tazed him bro!!!!'. You didn't think it was absolutely ridiculous that I suggested tazing them through a window of a moving car? That should have been the first sign that I was because sarcastic.

My remarks actually weren't directed at you, I was just making a general observation.

He probably had his hands up by the the time the SUV hit them though.

 

[Shadow99]

Trooper seemed way more persistent in the chase than CPD.

 

[Blood on Blood]

Damn, now that's how you exercise the appropriate level of justice.
