It was necessary to run from the police.?

Folks flee from police and get clean away every day.  It's no major accomplishment - usually just good judgement on the cop's part not to chase some idiot who'll probably get himself or someone else hurt in the chase.  It's really amazing that the cops, who are encumbered with heavy equipment, unfathomable rules of engagement, and an almost totally hostile operating environment, ever catch anyone at all - especially young, healthy, and nimble kids who know the terrain.  My personal favorite tactic is to arrest the friends of the guy who runs and make sure I load them up with charges so that they'll kick the crap out of the runner later.

I bet all those people suggesting you should contest it or ignore it are the same people who complain that the police spend too much time sorting out paperwork rather than catching proper criminals.\n\nYou were caught speeding, so just take your punishment like a man, not a wimp, and let the police get on with their job.

I don't know the story but, the only thing we can do is offer support to our law enforcement officers.  Many people feel as you do but their voices are unheard.  If someone tries to run over an officer, his or her hands must not be tied by PC.  Whoever a crimminal is, should be handled as such reguardless of background or income.

Not if you had a chance to walk away....if you were provoked and then had to defend yourself..then yes

yes- there will be an warrant issued if it is know you ran away?\nIf not an amber alert will be issued for you and if it is found then that you ran away, you will be in even more trouble, possibly a felony

With the other issues of depending on the government aside, you need one to protect yourself. Regardless of whether the police are there to protect you, if you have a person break into your house in the middle of the night, you may not have time to call the police. Even if you do and they are only five minutes away, you can be killed a hundred times over in five minutes. \n\nYou have a right and a duty to defend yourself and your family.

I'd move out of the way and see what they're running from before I started running myself.  To be more philosophical . . . you can run against the grain, but you might be run over.

Absolutely. Call the police asap.

A officier can not legally stop you outside of his jurisdiction.\n\nIf he did not turn on his lights and siren before he crossed his state line, then it was not a legal stop.\n\nA attorney can eat this up, even including possible illegal stop and detention by the police officer

Sounds like police brutality to me. What was the purpose of being there for so long ? Police should use enough force to control the subject, any force used after the point of control is called excessive force and is against the law.

Call the local police station and get their advice...

If you really think you stopped, fight it. I think most cop cars have cameras in them, maybe they can get something from there...

He went to the police station of his own volition.

This is a good one.  First of all I think that I would call the non-emergency phone number for the police station in your area.  They are full of information.  And would probably know exactly what to do in this kind of situation.  Good Luck finding out where to go.....

well, i don't know what they were arresting him for (if they were chasing him for 2 miles, they had to have a good reason)\n\nhe was resisting arrest, so I see why they would feel it neccecsary to do that, maybe they thought he was a danger to them\n\nwe need to know why he was being arrested....
