When the student exited the residence and appeared ready to flee again, the responding officer deployed a BolaWrap device, successfully restraining the student. The student was taken into custody without further incident and transported to the Juvenile Detention Center.
On February 29, 2024, a police School Resource Officer at a local high school assisted a Juvenile Probation Officer in apprehending a student who was noncompliant and avoiding class. After a Directive to Apprehend was issued, the student fled the campus.
The challenge was immediate: The student had fled school campus and was located at a nearby apartment. When the student appeared ready to flee again upon seeing officers, immediate intervention was necessary to prevent a prolonged pursuit.
The WrapWindow™ opened as the student exited the residence and showed clear intent to flee again, providing the critical moment for deployment before losing control of the situation.
Deployment and resolution: The responding officer deployed a BolaWrap device, successfully restraining the student and preventing further flight attempts through residential areas.
The outcome exceeded expectations: The student was taken into custody without further incident and safely transported to the Juvenile Detention Center, avoiding a dangerous pursuit while maintaining school safety protocols.
