The most recent was in Botetourt County in which a man in a stolen car fled
from State Police, hit two other motorists, one of whom died.
In that case, the state police broke off the pursuit before the accident.
But a viewer from Evington wrote:
When the police say that they abandoned a chase because they were approaching
a heavily traveled area, I ask: "How does the individual being chased know
that they are no longer being pursued?"...I realize, of course, that is not
reasonable or lawful for an offender to attempt to elude arrest by initiating
a chase situation. However, once begun, what outcome can one reasonably
expect from a vehicle chase? Since the offender is being chased -- perhaps
he/she might elude the police --- or, wreck the vehicle --- or, strike a
pedestrian, --- or, collide with another vehicle. I believe that police
should use teamwork for establishing traffic roadblocks to make the arrest, or
simply proceed to the offender's home or work to arrest them, or heaven
forbid, simply give-in and wait for another day if the arrest is for a simple
traffic violation.

As we mentioned at the top of the newscast.
A high speed chase into Pittsylvania County has turned into a standoff with
an apparently suicidal gunman tonight.
Authorities began chasing a driver through Danville into the Ringgold area
about 9.
One of the officers at the scene says the chase ended when the man got out
of the car at his residence on route 7-32, and held a gun to his head.
We've just learned that both ends of route 7-32 are closed while sheriff's
officials and state police negotiate with the man.
We have a crew on scene.
