A police chase in Pierce County ended with a crash and a woman in critical condition.The crash happened on Tuesday evening around 6:30 p.m. just south of Spanaway Lake, on Spanaway Loop Road South.Investigators say the suspect refused to pull over due to expired tabs, then blew through a red light and hit two innocent vehicles.That is when deputies say they started to pursue the suspect.
"The question of who’s right or wrong, and they want to choose that the police should just let it go, but the person who is actually in the wrong doesn’t face any accountability, that’s what they’re asking for. That didn’t work for the last two and half years because we saw even higher numbers of fatalities,’ said Moss.Moss says if the situation is too dangerous, deputies will not pursue.
