The N&O has been covering the police chase that resulted in the tragic wreck that killed UNCG freshman Linsey Lunsford and her 9-year-old sister Maggie. So far, the focus seems to be on the Franklinton police officer giving chase instead of the multiple-DWI idiot driving erractically through the countryside:
Here’s the statement from the family:
“The man who hit our daughters, Linsay and Maggie, was being pursued because he was driving erratically, not because he had just committed a violent crime,” the family said in a prepared statement. “What our family does not understand is why, after a couple of miles into the chase, the officer did not discontinue the pursuit when it was evident the driver would not stop.”
