Imagine a story in which the criminal is, from the very beginning, already known to the protagonist. Now the task is to find the criminal, but the target evades capture easily.

This is clearly different from normal crime stories, in which the identity must be found first, but I don't know what it is called.

Crime drama.

Wikipedia told me so. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fall_%28TV_series%29

@JStrange88 led me to it.
