(Plain Press, November 2017) On October 10th, at Visible Voice Books in the Tremont neighborhood, Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson, Cleveland Police Chief Calvin Williams, Cleveland Traffic Commissioner James P. Muhic and Ward 3 Councilman Kerry McCormack joined representatives of community newspapers in a press conference and roundtable discussion concerning the Cleveland Police Department’s pursuit policy.
Rich Weiss, publisher of TheTremonster and Executive Director of Neighborhood Media, organized the press conference. Weiss explained that at several meetings of block clubs in Tremont, Cleveland Police Officers had referred to “a no pursuit policy.” Weiss asked if there was such a policy in Cleveland.
Mayor Frank Jackson said the City of Cleveland had an “appropriate pursuit policy.” He said, “As you know, a pursuit can end in disaster for those doing the pursuit, those being pursued and those people caught up in the pursuit.” He said there are different rules for different types of pursuits, but “There is no blanket do not pursue policy.”
