Book Theft Leads to Car Chase

The Syracuse motorist refused to pull over for officers – and even drove against traffic on Erie Boulevard trying to shake them – because he had a stolen library book in his car, Sgt. Thomas Connellan said. “It was stupid,” Connellan said.

    What about the book?
    Very impressive that the Syracuse police will chase down someone who absconds with a book from the University’s library, though I am glad they didn’t collide with any motorists on their chase! (Too bad it wasn’t caught on tape a la OJ.) But why didn’t they tell us what book it was that was so important to this guy and why? Or does this fall under “privacy”?
