Chasing people in a dream is the brain trying to overtake or reclaim parts of a community that are slipping away. This pursuit rehearses how the dreamer manages the distance between themselves and the collective.
The act of pursuing those who depart is an attempt to close the distance between the self and the group. Failing to reach them in the dream leaves a feeling of being separated from others. The dream leaves room for the dreamer to recognize where social ties require more intentional presence.
When police are chasing people, the dream moves toward a need to settle accounts regarding how one has acted within a community. This detail shifts the meaning from a simple search for connection to a need to address specific behaviors or social rules that have been overlooked.
For its more general meaning: Dream about people
Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
