In response to “Chases Don’t Work” (Sound Off, June 29-July 5). First of all chasing any motorcyle or car or truck is very dangerous and it could of been prevented by taking the license plate number down and meeting Mr. Ladue at his home. Then again the question is why didn’t he stop for the officer? Why did he chance his life instead of sucking it up and owning up to what he did wrong? The officer was doing his job, like any other officer does. I live in Norfolk. We have had so many issues with drugs, kids, theft, speeding, domestic disputes, we need our police station around a lot more than they are there.
