Officers did right during pursuit

Editor, The Transcript:

I would like to commend the Norman police involved in the pursuit of a vehicle Wednesday morning as reported in your Oct. 29 article.

Driving to work I was eastbound on Robinson and met an officer in the intersection at Interstate Drive. I stopped, as did he for a moment. As I drove over I-35 I then met with an officer on a motorcycle and another in an SUV.

All three managed to get through a very busy intersection at 24th without incident. And me, I managed to get to work safely and on time.
