Hola Steve,
In Spanish, "police" (la policía) is singular, not plural. So, "la policía es..." not "la policía son...". The same goes for "people" (la gente):
We say "la gente es...."
not "la gente son..."
Saludos
Inma
Just checking that I've understood this: The Police (they) chased....so shouldn't it be persiguen?
