Baynard Police back off and trail behind as safely as possible, while the fleeing felon takes off, heading the wrong way down Atlantic Walk.
His driving doesn't seem to get any better, whether they're right up on his tail or not. It's only a matter of time before someone gets hurt...

Homer: Tell me, O muse, of that ingenious hero who traveled far and wide after he had sacked the famous town of Troy. Many cities did he visit, and many were the nations with whose manners and customs he was acquainted; moreover he suffered much by sea while trying to save his own life and bring his men safely home. . . --Homer's Odyssey, Book I

Manchester has seen large numbers of visitors over the past few days as the city again played host to a major political conference.
Chief Superintendent John O’Hare said: “Over the past five days Manchester City Centre has played host to the Conservative Party Conference which saw more than 12,000 delegates visit our city.
“This is a complex and challenging security and public order operation which requires a high degree of partnership activity and the highest levels of professionalism throughout.
“As is the norm, there have been elements of protest throughout the conference period - 30,000 people marched through the city on Sunday alone.
“The vast majority of people attending protests did so in the spirit of their causes, worked with us to make sure they could voice their opinions in a safe manner and with minimal disruption to others.
“On the occasions where individuals crossed the line we have taken positive action and 11 people have been arrested as a result of unacceptable behaviour over the past few days.
“Throughout this operation officers have worked tirelessly to protect delegates, facilitate the protests, and keep our city safe.
“I am proud of all our officers and staff. They have all performed their duties to the highest of standards and acted in a professional and fair manner throughout.
“I also want to thank everyone who lives in, works in or was visiting the city centre while this operation has been taking place for their patience, support and co-operation.”

In 2012, Ali and his wife Zahra [names changed] fled with their family from their farm outside Aleppo when Islamists aggressively tried to recruit Mohamad and his brother. “Can you believe they offered me money in exchange for my honour, in exchange for the life of my sons?” exclaims Ali in disgust. “There was no choice but to flee to Damascus.” But his son was still not safe.
“Can you believe they offered me money in exchange for my honour, in exchange for the life of my sons?”
“I’d rather have no money, but have my parents be proud of me,” Mohamad bravely told the IS recruiters. Instead he joined the Syrian army, and in August 2016 he died fighting at Deir ez-Zor.
His family has been adrift ever since. Mohamad’s closest brother Hussein stays shut in his room, doing nothing. “He hasn’t left the house since his brother died,” worries his father Ali. “He is not well.” Sometimes Hussein has violent outbursts of rage, destroying things in their tiny home.
Meanwhile their mother squats on the floor for hours at a time with her back against the wall, unable to work. “I just think about my son. That’s all,” she says flatly, her eyes empty. Her loss is irreplaceable.
Now living in Jaramana, a suburb of Damascus overflowing with people displaced by war, the whole family goes every Friday to visit Mohamad’s grave in a village 15 miles away.
“We are alive. But that is all.”
“Before the war, we lived simply, but we had what we needed,” murmurs Ali, blinking away tears as he grasps a portrait of his lost son to his chest. “Olive trees, some farm animals, food to eat, the children in school.” Now, although he works ceaselessly doing manual jobs around the neighbourhood, he makes only about half what will cover the family’s basic needs. “When I find work, we eat. When I don’t… We are alive. But that is all.”
Down a little side street a few blocks away, Caritas workers have registered more than 5,000 families including Ali’s. Families receive vouchers to exchange for whatever goods they most needs, in shops which set fair prices. It must be difficult for a proud, hard-working father of a family to accept aid, but Ali admits that otherwise he could not manage.
He also gets help with the rent on three rooms on the rooftop of a half-finished building where the family lives, and Caritas also supports his youngest son Hassan, aged 12, to go to school. Hassan stays on after class for extra lessons to catch up with all the school he missed while living under the control of IS, who stopped children from attending. With 1.75 million children currently not in school (UNOCHA), Syria today has a lost generation whose life chances are in ruins.

Deputy Chief Police and Crime Commissioner Jim Battle, Chief Inspector Laura Marler and Jessica White of the LGBT Foundation Angels at the Safe Haven.
A new initiative to provide support to people in need on a night out has been launched in Manchester city centre.
The Safe Haven has been developed by Greater Manchester Police, Manchester City Council, Greater Manchester’s Police and Crime Commissioner and other partners.
Based at the Nexus Art Café at Dale Street it is designed to reduce the demand on frontline services by assisting those people who become vulnerable and require the support of others to ensure they are safe and can get home after being out and about in the city following a night out.
It is supported by regular officers, special constables, Manchester Street Angels and the LGBT Foundation Village Angels. The centre will act as a place of safety and a hub for police to provide care, advice and assistance for anyone who attends. Water and hot drinks will be provided and visitors to the café will receive support to help them arrange to get home.
Chief Inspector Laura Marler who is coordinating the Safe Haven scheme said: “Weekend nights in the city centre is a busy time for all partners including police. This initiative is to ensure our most vulnerable members of the community are protected, we can reduce the demand on our frontline services and the number of incidents of violent crime and ensure those visiting the city can enjoy their night safely.”
Councillor Pat Karney, Manchester city centre spokesman, said: “Manchester is famous for its nightlife and tens of thousands of people come into the city centre every weekend to experience enjoyable and safe nights out. However, there will always be people who are feeling vulnerable in any large city centre on a Friday and Saturday night and the Safe Haven scheme will provide somewhere they can go without having to approach the emergency services directly.”
Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner Jim Battle said: “This safe haven will enhance the valuable work done by our emergency services, door staff and army of volunteers from the LGBT Foundation Village Angels, Manchester Street Angels who are out every weekend to keep people safe in our city centre.
“The safe haven will provide a place for people to chill out, perhaps recharge their phone, get support and ultimately get home safely.
“It will help to make sure that our police are freed up to keep our city’s streets safe, but most importantly it will mean people who could fall victim to crime are able to keep out of harm’s way.
“I hope this scheme is a success as it demonstrates how the emergency services, venues, charities and volunteers are all working together to make our city a fantastic place.”

As part of the Nuneaton artist, Jo Gane's "Liquid Silver" photographic exhibit at Compton Verney, the windows of the room have been covered with a red film which gives this intense effect. (You can see the natural light leaking in a little at the lower edge of the window.) This installation has been called "Safe Light".
Mosler Safe circa 1892 found at Blackwater, MO. It was used by local bank until 1970s rift of bank failures.
The Berchtesgaden monastery was founded in 1102 as community of Augustinian Canons by Count Berengar of Sulzbach, a friend of Henry V. The Canons felt nor safe and comfortable in the wild, wooded area - and gave up the place soon after.
They returned with the first Provost Eberwin around 1120 - and started a success story. The monastery became an Imperial abbey in already 1194. In 1380 the provosts achieved the status of an ecclesistical "Reichsfuerst" and in the 1550s they even held a direct vote in the Reichstag assembly as "Prince-Provosts". From the very beginning upto the secularisation of the monastery in 1803 it was open only for the offsprings of noble families, what actually created this political power. In 1810 the territory of the former monastery fell to the newly established Kingdom of Bavaria, so that the House of Wittelsbach could finally transform the monastic buildings into a summer palace.
The former collegiate church "St. Peter and St. John the Baptist" serves as a parish church since 1803.
The most important piece of architecture (for me) is the cloister. Most of the structure survived all the time, and even when the House of Wittelsbach converted the provostry into a summer palace, the old closter stayed untouched. The style of many works here is very rough and differs from the sophisticated works seen an St. Zeno, less than 20 kms south. The motifs and symbols found here are very graphic.
This large capital differs from the rough style first seen (mermaid), but as well of the style, the many horizontal "swimmers" and lions were carved in. It is masterly carved - and this head is just another detail. I had the impression, that he casted an eye at me, but I had to leave him alone - and left the cloister.
Whitby is a seaside town, port and civil parish in the Borough of Scarborough and English county of North Yorkshire. It is located within the historic boundaries of the North Riding of Yorkshire.
Situated on the east coast of Yorkshire at the mouth of the River Esk, Whitby has an established maritime, mineral and tourist heritage. Its East Cliff is home to the ruins of Whitby Abbey, where Cædmon, the earliest recognised English poet, lived.
The fishing port developed during the Middle Ages, supporting important herring and whaling fleets and was, along with the nearby fishing village of Staithes, where Captain Cook learned seamanship.
Tourism started in Whitby during the Georgian period and developed further on the arrival of the railway in 1839. Its attraction as a tourist destination is enhanced by its proximity to the high ground of the North York Moors National Park, its Heritage Coastline and by its association with the horror novel Dracula. Jet and alum were mined locally.
Whitby Jet, which was mined by the Romans and Victorians, became fashionable during the 19th century.
The earliest record of a permanent settlement is in 656, when as Streanæshealh it was the place where Oswy, the Christian king of Northumbria, founded the first abbey, under the abbess Hilda. The Synod of Whitby was held there in 664. In 867, the monastery was destroyed by Viking raiders. Another monastery was founded in 1078. It was in this period that the town gained its current name, Whitby from "white settlement" in Old Norse.
In the following centuries Whitby functioned as a fishing settlement until, in the 18th century, it developed as a port and centre for shipbuilding and whaling, the trade in locally mined alum, and the manufacture of Whitby jet jewellery.
The abbey ruin at the top of the East Cliff is the town's oldest and most prominent landmark. Other significant features include the swing bridge, which crosses the River Esk and the harbour, which is sheltered by the grade II listed East and West piers.
The town's maritime heritage is commemorated by statues of Captain Cook and William Scoresby, as well as the whalebone arch that sits at the top of the West Cliff. The town also has a strong literary tradition and has featured in literary works, television and cinema, most famously in Bram Stoker's novel Dracula.
