There is always risk in a situation like this but you must mitigate what risk you can.

Again, what would you have the police do differently?
the reason why I stated that I would rather be the person being chased then the people that are chasing is that you are dealing with cops who are inexperienced in dealing with this kind of situation.

In a wooded area with the right type of weapons I could see a lot of opportunities to set up ambushes and then fade into the woods.

The biggest issue is based around the use of infrared from the air to detect body heat, but if I pack enough snow around me or build a fireblind out of snow that masks my body temperature I become invisible.
