After 3 bi-state police chases, Brooklyn, Illinois, chief says department lacks 'pursuit policy'
SUMMARY: The Brooklyn, Illinois Police Department is facing scrutiny after three police chases occurred in over a week, culminating in crashes in Missouri. Chief Terry Puit, who has only two full-time officers, acknowledged that the chases were excessive due to staff shortages in a village of 750 people. The first chase began after a drug-related incident, while the second involved an accident that injured five people when a truck crashed into a restaurant. The third chase resulted in a vehicle’s fire after the driver fled. Investigations are ongoing, with arrests pending for the latter two incidents.
Three recent pursuits originating from the village of Brooklyn, Illinois, all ended with crashes in Missouri. The police department’s chief conceded that three pursuits in eight days was “a little bit excessive.”
SUMMARY: Next week, arctic air will bring a brief break in the weather before more cold air shots and potential wintry weather. A recent snowstorm left 2-3 inches in most areas, with higher totals south of the metro. Another system is expected tomorrow evening with a chance of light snow or mixed precipitation. A cold front will bring more frigid temperatures for early next week, with a potential wintry system around the 19th and 20th.
