3 police briefs, one shift

These 3 stories, all coming in during my city desk shift and within about an hour of each other, were stressful and time consuming (since I was trying to also finish the medical school's rural program story). By this time I felt like I had a feel for how to write quick briefs based on media releases. I tried to speak to police representatives when I could and did for the car chase story. Matt helped me out tremendously on that one (and really all of them) by giving me the number of someone who could answer my questions while the PIO was not returning my calls.
