I happen to be sitting at the light of Nan Gray Davis Rd. and Theodore Dawes when this car as well as the two county police officers came speeding through the intersection. I have never witnessed a police chase before but I am now concerned.  If this is how it goes when police are in pursuit of criminals i am truly concerned.  Both of my children were in the car with me and it scared them to death.  They never checked up once going through that intersection.  Glad they got them and before they killed someone.

I listened to this on chase on my police scanner as it happened. When it started the police were doing something else not connected to these two; who semmed to have panicked when they saw the cops and ran. As for how the deputies handled the chase? They were very cool and professional. I was pleased at what I heard as they planned ahead of the fleeing felons. Good job Deputies!!
