Seattle police OK pilot program of BolaWrap, non-lethal tool to subdue suspects

[ATCclears]

The Seattle Police Department will participate in a pilot program in which officers will deploy a non-lethal way to take suspects down, a trial period that the agency will use to determine if it should be rolled out to more officers on the force.

The device was credited with saving the life of a man who was suffering from a mental health crisis when he threatened to jump from an Interstate 5 overpass, an incident that was captured by police dash cam video.

After they bolo wrap the perp, they can take turns with the clown gun rounds to make sure the perp is really subdued.
