https://www.policeone.com/off-...olice-dies-in-crash/Jeeze...what a shit show...I wonder why the off-duty officer decided running was a good idea? I'd hate to have any involvement in that, and hope our CPD members weren't affected.

CHICAGO — An off-duty officer and a woman were killed in a fiery crash after the officer fled from police who attempted to pull him over.
Supt. Eddie Johnson said officers in an unmarked SUV matched the off-duty officer’s car to a description of one that was used in a carjacking on Tuesday, CBS Chicago reported. The car was not the right one, but the off-duty officer fled.
The off-duty officer then collided with Chequita Adams, 27. According to ABC 7, both drivers were pinned in their vehicles as they caught fire. They were pronounced dead on the scene.

thumperfbcI'm no detective but I suspect they will find evidence of some "shenanigans" in the deceased officers history in short order.
Bet there are probably a few other officers feeling a bit nervous too.

Short of having weed in the car, or getting a BJ from a known hooker, or having said hooker dead in the passenger seat, or being drunk (maybe in Chicago), it's hard to imagine a situation where an off duty officer would be in full-screwed mode by being pulled over.

spunk639Maybe he was unarmed and thought it was a hit by bogus cops.

DoctorSoloIt's distasteful to speculate.
But I wager drunk.

And with lower hiring standards that number is going to grow...

Don't even get me started.... have I got stories for you....
But in this case, what a fucking idiot. A sheer embarrassment to the badge.
