Officers Leslie Wright and Elton Hymon took the call and responded to the location in question (Tennessee v. Garner, 1986).

Police across the USA chase tens of thousands of people each year -- usually for traffic violations or misdemeanors -- often causing drivers to speed away recklessly. Recent cases show the danger of the longstanding police practice of chasing minor offenders.” Although they do not mean to take the lives of others, it sometimes elevates to those means. As stated before, high speed chases usually end up with a death of someone involved in the chase.

On 08/20/2017 at 1002 hours FTO Wheeler #4361 and I responded to St. Luke’s Hospital emergency room entrance, on 3555 Cesar Chavez St., regarding a women in a hospital gown trying to break the caller’s vehicle window with a brick.

On 010/05/2016, I, Chad Agnew, was working as a patrol officer for the Wichita State University Police Department, in Wichita, Sedgwick County, Kansas. At approximately1415 hours, officers were dispatched to the Rhatigan Student Center for a suspicious character. Dispatch notified all officers that they were still gathering more information at the time but the suspicious character was a black male with crutches. They also said the subject was yelling someone had a gun.

On Friday May 6, 2016 from 4:00pm to 12:00 am, I experienced a ride along with Placer County Sheriff deputy Nate Ferguson. Deputy Ferguson has been with the Placer County Sheriff’s department for 1 ½ years. Prior to that, he served as a police officer for 9 years with Citrus Heights Police Department. Deputy Ferguson’s beat for the night was basically The Greens and the surrounding area of Auburn from Dry Creek to Atwood on Hwy 49. The Greens is composed of low income housing, where drugs, exgang members and domestic violence is ramped. Auburn is also home to many transients and those on probation or parole. When AB101 became effective, Placer County probation became inundated with inmates from all over, even as far as Soledad State Prison. For example, last night as we were driving around scanning the surrounding area on Hwy 49 and Bell road, we both noticed a guy walking, wearing a trench coat and looked suspicious, so we stopped, and as deputy Ferguson got out of the vehicle to approach him, the guy kept on walking, in which he was about 50 feet ahead of him. Ferguson then ran, yelling for him to stop, but when he finally caught up to the guy, he was wearing headphones and didn’t hear him yell stop. Deputy Ferguson ran his ID and it came back that the guy was on parole for being a sex offender and was just released from Soledad. I watched Deputy Ferguson search this guy, he went through all of his pockets and up and down his legs

In March 2001, a Georgia deputy attempted to pull over 19-year-old Victor Harris for driving 73 miles-per-hour in a 55 miles-per-hour zone.

The officers attempted to box Harris into a shopping center parking lot, but he made a sharp turn, collided with Deputy Scott, and sped off again. Deputy Scott took over as the lead pursuit officer in the chase.

An officer then went to the back door of the home and heard a door slam and observed someone running across the backyard. The fleeing suspect, later identified as Edward Garner, stopped at a 6 foot high chain link fence at the edge of the back yard. The officer with the aid of a flashlight was able to observe Garner’s face and hands and saw no obvious signs of a weapon. While Garner was kneeling down the bottom of the fence the officer yelled out “Police, Halt” while taking a few steps towards Garner. Garner than began to climb the fence and the officer believing that if Garner got over the fence he would avoid being captured, the officer shot him. The only thing on Garner was 10 dollars and a purse taken from the house.
