Minnesota legislators are considering a bill that would give police more access to track stolen cars.

“It allows law enforcement or police officers to put a tracking device on a stolen vehicle, a vehicle that’s reported stolen,” said DFL Rep. Cedrick Frazier, a co-author of the proposal.

Frazier says the proposal is intended to reduce the number of dangerous, high-speed police chases.
