Response to Resistance

The use of force by law enforcement personnel is a matter of critical concern both to the public and to the law enforcement community. The purpose of the Response to Resistance policy is to provide officers with guidelines on objectively reasonable response to resistance. Each officer is expected to use these guidelines to make decisions in a professional, impartial and objectively reasonable manner.
