High Speed Chase in Wichita

High speed chase last night of a stolen car critically injures 1 and causes 2 minor injuries. Are you kidding me? First of all what happened to the NO High speed chases through a town? I can understand that circumstances would be different if there had been a hostage involved, but, the police had already stopped the car, and it pulled away, giving them an excuse for a high speed chase, but, to know that the car would have had to stop eventually, and would have been found, makes it not worth taking or injuring others lives. According to KSN, the driver of the stolen car ran a red light and the two cars crossing on the green both hit the stolen car. I just don't understand how this could even be justified!
