    Is there any type of context available? Spike mat for bikes seems pretty much interchangeable with pulling a gun in terms of likely outcome for the target.

      Nah, not at those speeds. It seems police are after these kids for being a public nuisance rather than speeding.

      EDIT; Ok, since people seem incapable of understanding the context of my answer: Justified or not, it is not interchangeable with pulling out a gun at those speeds. Y’alls reading comprehension sucks.

        …public nuisance rather than spending.

        Kids out there causing trouble without even having the decency to stimulate the local economy.
