Reactionary - No Training Tangle Team Training Controlled, Disciplined Response
Mass Arrest and Tangle Team Operations
As critical as Squad Tactics are to successful crowd control, proper arrest tactics specific to crowd control and mass arrest are equally relevant. Often arrest tactics are forgotten and place officers in the position of reacting without proper training or understanding of arrest tactics relevant to crowd control resulting in questionable uses of force, civil litigation, and bad press. As damaging as a picture of an officer delivering an unauthorized baton strike is on the front page of a newspaper, is the picture of an officer dragging a demonstrator by the hair out of a crowd.
Courses in Mass Arrest and Tangle Team Operations arm your agency with the proper tools, tactics, and understanding of Use of Force in Crowd Control to provide a methodical approach to mass arrest resulting in fewer injuries to officers or arrestees.
In the late 1980’s and early 1990’s when Operation Rescue started nationwide mass demonstrations against abortion, departments reacted having to arrest dozens and even hundreds of demonstrators without proper training resulting in significant back injuries, time off work and even medical pensions.
Courses include squad strategy, managing the crowd,dedicated arrest team tactics and operations, supervisory responsibility, Use of Force, recording of arrests and transportation.
As with all MTS courses, each course is custom designed to fit the specific needs of your department.
