The deployment was successful, and an empty hand control take-down was performed. No one was injured, and the party was arrested without further incident.
On August 18, 2024, officers responded to a vehicle collision involving a 20-year-old male under the influence of alcohol. The incident required careful management to ensure safe custody while addressing impaired driving concerns.
The challenge was immediate: The subject's alcohol impairment created unpredictable behavior risks during what was already a stressful vehicle collision scenario requiring immediate law enforcement intervention.
The WrapWindow™ opened with the subject standing still at 10-15 feet distance, allowing officers to deploy the BolaWrap targeting the arms before attempting physical control measures.
Deployment and resolution: Officers successfully deployed the BolaWrap high (arms) from 10-15 feet while the subject was stationary. Following deployment, an empty hand control take-down was performed safely.
The outcome exceeded expectations: The hooks penetrated only clothing without causing injury to anyone involved. The subject was arrested without further incident, demonstrating effective integration of BolaWrap with traditional control techniques.
