Police Chase Prompts Surge Of Helicopters In Downtown.

Got an IM from a friend of mine working in a taller building here in Downtown Crossing.

"What's with all the copters?"

I could only hear them, not see them, as I am on the third floor of my building... And he is on the 12th.

Eventually he found online what the deal was... We had us a good old fashioned police car chase here in Beantown just a little while ago.

It started in Charlestown and ended around Storrow Drive, when the car hit a cab. Luckily, no one was hurt.

Seriously though, wht the eff would you attempt to out-run the cops in Boston via motor vehicle? Sure, it might make sense, as there is so much traffic, you could easily blend in and get lost... But on the flip side, it's eff-ing difficult to drive in Boston... ESPECIALLY when rush-hour is approaching.

I've only driven in Boston once... But I know enough to know you don't attempt to out-run the law like the Duke Boys during rush hour on a sunny day.
