The thing that bothers me about it is that, while the ruling says that flight isn't probative, it still acknowledges it to be grounds for suspicion and, by implication, sufficient to warrant pursuit where the police can get up to all sorts of mischief. The only thing it would seem to rule out is the application of deadly force merely as a response to flight. That's something, I guess.
