[QUOTE="MG0h3, post: 16579197, member: 164690"] I meant you won’t find a case like you are suggesting. Officers aren’t held liable for not acting. Otherwise, I could sue the cops for every crime that I’m ever a victim of. However, if an officer initiates a vehicle stop that then turns into a pursuit and continues the pursuit where a reasonable person could foresee it endangering other people and it does, they can end up cutting a check. We literally get told to cut the lights and sirens and turn around when the person is erratic enough to cross the median of a freeway against oncoming traffic. We could lie on the radio when asked, but that’ll get you fired in a hurry. The Department/Agency is absolutely NOT liable if some speeding maniac mows down a bunch of school kids. If we chase this suspect into the school zone where he mows down the kids, we CAN be found liable. Because why was he running? We were chasing him. Hope that makes sense.
