Newsom urges Oakland officials to tighten 'extreme' policy that restricts police chases

Fox News
Saturday, July 27, 2024 6:31 AM GMT

California Gov. Gavin Newsom called on Oakland officials to tighten a policy that restricts when police officers can chase a suspected criminal.

"Although some California jurisdictions allow vehicle pursuits for only certain crimes (e.g., felonies), Oakland is an outlier by imposing exceptional restrictions on OPD's ability to police criminal activity, generally permitting pursuits only for 'violent forcible crimes,' as defined in OPD's policy, and crimes involving firearms," Newsom wrote. 

The letter said that, unlike most other jurisdictions in the state, local police in Oakland are prohibited from pursuing people suspected of committing various felonies and any misdemeanor, including those that are violent, as well as other offenses that endanger public safety, such as reckless driving, sideshow activity and driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
