Police deny chase was dangerous
City police say there was no danger posed during a short chase on Saturday evening near the supper hour. A caller to our newsroom says a city police cruiser chased a red car on Golf Links Road and went through a red light at James Street. He says the vehicles reached speeds of up to 100 kilometres an hour, and he called it dangerous. Police couldn't tell us what speeds were involved, but say that once the vehicle they were chasing went through the red light they stopped the pursuit so there was no danger. They were trying stop the driver, who is wanted on a warrant.
