Burien Police Chief Ted Boe didn't mince words when describing a recent incident where officers witnessed a burglary but legally weren't allowed to pursue the suspects, according to a social media post from the Burien Police Department.

Boe said he found himself “incredibly frustrated” with the restrictions placed on law enforcement by the Washington State Legislature and 10.116.060, which made pursuits by law enforcement difficult to justify.The recent angst was brought on by an incident that Boe said occurred Friday morning when two of his officers found two people burglarizing a Burien business and “had to let them drive away.
He said the officers did everything they could to arrest them, but the law prevented his officers from using methods such as a Pursuit Immobilization Technique or spike strips.
