Physically controlling a smaller subject who is actively resisting can be a very challenging task, especially if the goal is to minimize injury.
In this case, a female assault suspect attempts to flee the scene. Officers go hands-on, and as she continues to fight, they safely take her to the ground. Within seconds, they transition into SafeWrap. When the third officer arrives, he provides immediate assistance, demonstrating the consistency and coordination that SafeWrap training enables.
The officers remain calm throughout the encounter, communicating clearly with each other and the suspect.
Best of all, the suspect is fully controlled and handcuffed on her side—a position that offers significant tactical and medical advantages over traditional prone restraint.
What’s most remarkable is that this is just one of nine successful field deployments of SafeWrap by the Bellevue Police Department (Washington) in the five months since adoption—with zero serious injuries reported.
Even more impressive? In multiple cases, rookie officers used SafeWrap successfully during their first-ever use of force.
Originally developed for safely restraining psychiatric patients in hospitals, the proprietary SafeWrap system is now transforming safety protocols across all industries where physical restraint may be required.
If your agency or organization isn’t yet SafeWrap certified, don’t miss the upcoming 2-day instructor certification course in Torrance, California.
