All right, we're going on Orange now, heading toward downtown. Speed about 55 miles per hour, blacked out. We're going down East 9th. Dangerous operation on the roadway. About 60 miles per hour down toward the canal. Permission to continue, reckless operator. We're going down the canal toward the Tremont area, making a left. High speeds, around 60 miles per hour. They are bypassing stop signs. Passing West 6th, still not stopping, about 50 miles per hour. Can a two-man unit roll with you? We're in the three-mile area, about 60. I lost sight for a bit. I'm near the square now, near the Flying Monkey pub. Now on Auburn, coming back to Tremont. On West 14th, heading away from downtown, passing the west side, about 50 miles per hour. Speeds slowing and increasing, up to 70 miles per hour going westbound past 16th on Clark. Requesting air support update. Going westbound past West 25th, northbound on West 25th; vehicle pulling over? I'm going to get out near Archmere. Copy. Back on Clark, in a park lot. I just hit my head. Now going eastbound back toward Scranton, on Scranton southbound, now south on Raleigh. Units be advised Cleveland says this vehicle may be connected to an earlier shooting on Cedar. Can we get an update on the chopper? I lost sight of it. I have terminated last unit. The vehicle reportedly fired five rifle rounds at a district car near Central. That car went westbound toward Seymour then toward 25th. Trying to set up cars at main intersections in case we see it. Cleveland states they did not join pursuit due to policy. Units lost the vehicle and terminated pursuit.
