Absolutely! There are many reasons why:

1) They were breaking the law.

2) They could have killed you.

3) If they aren't made to pay for their mistakes, they probably won't learn their lesson, screwing up their lives even further.

4) If they don't stop now they could hurt someone else.

5) Who's going to pay for your car and doctor's appointments?
