During their national Sunday evening broadcast this weekend, NBC Nightly News aired an important story about the way we’re avoiding dangerous high-speed chases and apprehending those who could do further harm in the community.
As the first state police agency in the northeast to pilot Star Chase, we developed a clear policy framework for Troopers to use the technology, de-escalate police evasions, and continue pursuing suspects from a safe distance. In the last 8 months, we’ve successfully apprehended individuals who allegedly committed offenses related to narcotics, homicides, kidnapping, and operating under the influence.
