Police pursuits lead to 8 deaths nationwide

A series of police pursuits have led to at least eight deaths around the country in less than a week amid calls by some law enforcement experts to curb risky high speed chases. In Texas, police pursued a car that had been driving without headlights, prompting a deadly crash Sunday. In Alabama, four people died when their car hit a tree Friday after a state trooper pursued them. In California, two separate police car chases led to the deaths of at least three people last week, including a pregnant woman. Hundreds are killed by police car chases annually and some experts say police should limit pursuits to cases where a violent crime has been committed.
