Chicago unveils new foot chase policy following fatal police shootings

A lot of things the officer instantly has to consider before chasing after a law breaker! The cops just are better off staying in the sqd as somehow he might violate one of the rules! Wait until the crooks find out about the rule! As the first thing always done when stopped in the stolen car they are driving is bail and run..Lol.

Chicago unveils new foot chase policy following fatal police shootings of Adam Toledo, 13, and Anthony Alvarez, 21: Cops are BANNED from giving chase for minor traffic violations and must not separate from partners
From June 11, officers will no longer be able to give chase to suspects on foot for minor traffic violations

Officers will not be able to separate from partners on foot and will have to stop pursuing a suspect if they 'will not be able to control them in a confrontation'

Mayor Lori Lightfoot announced back in April that the department would implement a foot pursuit policy by summer.
Her announcement came amid outrage over the shooting deaths of Adam Toledo and Anthony Alvarez in March; both we killed after fleeing from officers on foot

Take a break guys. Who wants to do a foot race with ten pounds of gear on anyway.

Just ride around, wave and watch.

As I mentioned to some LEO's at the lodge about a month ago, I don't know jack $*it about law enforcement in any real sense, so I'm going to head up the committee on police reforms. The humor was seen but poking a stick into a hornets nest is funny at first.
They did say I should run for mayor since I seem to have those qualifications at present
Told them if I was mayor they'd have to wear a blindfold and handcuffs before they could go on patrol.

Now this crap and there is more on the way. Wouldn't surprise me if the mayors office says they have to wait until they're shot before returning fire.

My friend is a LEO he told me they just ride around and just watch everything no more chase or anything that might cause them trouble to much BS to put up with
