Cops'nRobbers'Copters.

I am not in the industry, but an enthusiaist and supporter of it. Can I ask of anyone who knows:-
Sometimes, either on t.v. news, or fly-on-the-wall documentaries, there will be some film footage of a police versus baddies chase taking place, somewhere in the USA. ('Frinstance, L.A.)
Invariably, the incident is being followed by what seems to be a cloud of helos, from, typically, L.A.P.D. or same as, and several news stations.
What I am asking is, between the police and news helo pilots, is there some kind of law, understanding, agreement, or whatever, as to who will fly at what height, in order for the news not to get in the way of police, and for the general safety of all concerned, including people on the ground?
