This is a quote from what I consider the best generic article on the Web for defending yourself versus multiple opponents, Defend University's, Facing Multiple Attackers? Styles, Attributes and Strategies for Successful Self-Defense," by Brad Parker. I'd recommend reading the whole article.
I like his analysis, but also consider that:
- The suspect in a foot pursuit may know the area better than a cop.
- Police are usually weighed down by more gear.
- Cops may not be in as good a shape as their quarry.
The point of stringing a group out over a couple of hundred yards is very valid, but you'd better be in shape to run and fight. I'm not, so I'm afraid I'd have to just fight...
