> Pretty sure they won't be fixing or paying for any damages either. There was a somewhat-well-publicized incident a couple years(?) back when IIRC a shoplifting suspect (who was armed, I think) was chased by the cops, hid in a stranger's house, the police wrecked the house getting the guy out, and then didn't pay a dime to fix it, let alone anything to compensate for the significant inconvenience of having a messed-up house and having to have a lot of work done to repair it. Can't recall whether there were any successful lawsuits after, but the default was definitely, "nope, that's entirely your problem, we just break stuff, we don't fix it". And that's for someone who wasn't even any kind of target for the police, but an innocent bystander.
