The LAPD will test a new device that fires a Kevlar tether that wraps around a person's body.
A new device resembling a gadget on Batman’s utility belt will soon be in the hands of several hundred Los Angeles police officers to help detain individuals without using force.
Two frequent LAPD critics who attend Police Commission meetings criticized the tool. Adam Smith, a member of Black Lives Matter, told commissioners the department would probably deploy the tool mostly in minority communities. “This is a restraint device,” Rothans said. “This is meant to put time and distance between the officer.”
Dozens of departments in the United States are either testing the devices or have purchased them this year. The Fresno Police Department started training officers in January. Officers in Hendersonville, N.C., starting using the devices last week on the street.
