Chicago police officers will no longer be allowed to chase people on foot simply because they run away or give chase over minor offenses.

All it says is police can’t chase over minor violations like a traffic ticket or public drinking.
Class A misdemeanor and up they can still chase.
Probably a good thing police aren’t potentially escalating minor situations.

I could have sworn this policy went into place months ago, because I distinctly remember how the headline was spreading misinformation just like this one is.
