Usually the Hawks don't get involved in cases like this. That's very rare. Article says the security companies tipped them off. I can only assume they must have called the police who then contacted the Hawks who have better training , driving skills and equipment.

Police not having the capability to go after a single car on their own is a concern.

Looks to me like you are reading too much into the involvement of the Hawks in this incident.

Jaws made me give up scuba, even though in the 150 odd sea dives, I only saw a shark once.
