AKRON, Ohio — There’s a new change to Akron Police’s Vehicle Pursuit Procedure, Which the department hopes will rebuild trust in the community.
They said the revision bans Akron Police officers from engaging in a pursuit solely for or limited to just an equipment violation that includes instances like when a driver has a cracked windshield or a missing headlight. “We get our authority from the community that we serve, and it’s important that they know that we’re listening. I think it’s important that we share when we make these changes,” said Harding.“Where that could change could be if it’s equipment, maybe what you initially see as a taillight but then you relearn the plate and realize it’s a stolen vehicle,” said Harding.
