Police: Man fleeing cops paused to watch his pals get arrested

Brookline Police report one of three men chased down Comm. Ave. by officers responding to a larceny call on Thursday decided discretion was the better part of dishonor and dashed into a CVS along the way.

Police report the guy stayed around long enough to watch his buds get pepper sprayed and injure a couple of cops, then "changed his appearance, then walked out past the commotion taking place on the street."

Based on CVS surveillance photos, the guy changed his appearance by taking off his jacket and putting a baseball hat on backwards.
