When Is a Police Chase Not a Police Chase? People Die in Belt Parkway Crash.
About 1:00 A.M. this morning, police spotted a stolen Nissan meandering through the streets of Brooklyn. The police claim they did not chase the car; that they just watched.
The people in the Nissan noticed the police interest in their vehicle and jumped onto the westbound Belt Parkway. Even though the police lost sight of the Nissan, it ran away and hit a car near 65th Street in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn.
In the other car: one died at the scene, and three were injured, including a pregnant woman. The injured taken to Lutheran Medical Center.
The two in the Nissan were arrested. One of the arrested persons was taken to Maimonides Medical Center.
The Belt Parkway was closed for two hours.
Commentary: Was this a police chase or not? Was the crash because of the chase or not? Hard to say right now.
