From another article:

*Two pursuits. Both were terminated because his driving was so reckless that it was dangerous to keep chasing him. He was blowing through intersections at high speed through downtown Olympia and into Lacey.

That’s how innocent people die. A family heading home. A kid crossing the street. We’re handing the wheel to a driver who’s apparently high on meth and fentanyl and has no intention of stopping.*
