Csspecs -- sorry if I over reacted, I had a diffirnt and obviously wrong read on what you wrote.

I was not there so the choice to discontinue a chase is a fine enough decesion that I'm not going to arm chair QB it from here.

Obviously no officer would willingly disregard their or another officer's safety, for "nothing" but at the same time thier job always has risk and their own safety is not the only or sole consideration in such decesions.

Other things that could also be said:

Warden should have let Highway Patrol / DPS take the lead, they sure do it more.

Warden should be trained in chase / felony stop, or better practiced at it.

It could go on and on but again we were not there.

Thing that really stinks, other than the loss of the warden, is stories like this will ink an image like this with "hunter" attached to it upon the mind of many of the mis / under informed public.
