BEAVERTON, Ore. — Dozens of teens milled around Thursday night in the Southridge High School parking lot in Beaverton and others drove by, but it never developed into a game of fugitive — an extreme form of tag said to be an end-of-year tradition.
The Oregonian reports attention from the media and police who were at the scene apparently squelched the game that had been promoted on Facebook. More than 2,000 invitations were sent out and nearly 400 people replied they would play.
In the game, drivers chase runners who are typically given a five-minute head start to reach a destination several miles away.
