Cut to the chase!

I have never done this! Give one hell of a chase! Today, while I was entering the Chennai Koyambedu bus terminal, to book tickets for my Bangalore return journey, two guys on a bike entered the gates from the wrong direction of the main road and sped past me! And then I noticed the very 'ponchy' police man running up behind them shouting for them to stop! And where does he run out of breath?! just in front of my bike!!! He immediately got on my bike and said two words - 'Chase them'. I wasn't left with any option. Zoom I went around the bus stand and into the Koyambedu market! It was a very decent chase I should say... and that guy did a very good job of trying to avoid us but eventually ran out of steam. As soon as we caught up, they got into a heated argument and I dint want to hear any of it! I sped back to the bus stand... but such a crazy event took me off guard for a few minutes!
Wah! What an efficient police system we have!
