Family of 16 year old killed in police chase say cops’ pursuit was "disproportionate"
manchestereveningnews.co.ukThe family of a 16-year-old who died after a police chase have told an inquest they believe the pursuit was ‘disproportionate’.
Kyle Hudson died in Bramhall when the Toyota Yaris he was driving careered off Moss Hall Lane in the early hours of November 13, 2020.
At the time, he was being pursued by a Cheshire traffic cop in a BMW. Kyle, from Stockport, lost control of the car, which was travelling frequently in excess of 80mph in the chase, on a left-hand bend, with the white Toyota hitting a wall.
He was taken to Stepping Hill hospital and later Salford Royal Hospital after emergency workers tried to restart his heart, which had entered cardiac arrest.
