[...] Politiet i Japan lader ikke sådan uden videre en mistænkt slippe. Det beviste en massiv politistyrke for godt en uge siden, da en 27-årig mand – mistænkt for at have overfaldet flere politifolk – blev jagtet.Det skriver nyhedssiden Japan Today. Politiledelsen i Osaka sendte ikke færre end 460 politibiler, 2.240 politifolk og en enkelt helikopter på gaden og i luften for at jagte den 27-årige.Politiet havde modtaget en anmeldelse om et en bil kørte vildt i den indre by til fare for stort set alle andre. Da et par politifolk fik stoppet manden, stak han af – og så begyndte den intense biljagt, der varede to og en halv time.Til sidst gik det ikke længere for den 27-årige. Han mistede herredømmet over bilen og overgav sig til den enorme politistyrke, der cirka er en fjerdedel af hele Danmarks politistyrke.Se anholdelsen af manden her [...]

Well, I do, and I imagine the family of Lindsay Hawker might too. That’s two entities that might still consider murder an arrest-worthy offense. I’d wager that others still care, too.

And in the end they didn’t even manage to STOP him – he rammed himself into a barrier.

Well, if this was a bike rider the police were chasing. He would have been in prison 2 minutes after starting the chase.

Damn striaght about that jerk.

If he had “assaulted a police officer” he’d have been found, confessed, and jailed already.

As for cops being over-zealous in chasing those who actually assault cops, that’s a world-wide phenomenon, it’s natural…

But in Japan, where the cops basically don’t really help ANYONE or do ANYTHING, it is particularly disgusting that the only thing to get them off their asses and actually catch someone, is that they themselves were the “victims”. Pathetic.
