It was a semi. Considering the fact that only the fleeing criminals died,
without injuring anyone else,  I would say they got exactly what they had
coming.

The best way you can help stop this is to not report it when you become the
victim. Even though your life may be shattered by a violent criminal, you
sure don't want the cops chasing anyone.

do you wnat the police to let them escape also?
