(VIDEO) ‘BOLA, BOLA, BOLA’: Take a Minute to Familiarize Yourself With the Newest Piece of Equipment Humboldt County Sheriff’s Deputies are Packing
This just in from the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office:
Check out the newest piece of equipment now being carried by our patrol deputies! The Bola Wrap is a handheld device that propels a 7.5 foot Kevlar cord, wrapping a persons legs or arms. It’s meant to be used during crisis situations as an alternative to pain compliance tools (such as pepper spray, taser, or less lethal shotgun) in order to take an individual safely into custody. As you’ll see in the video, the Bola Wrap is LOUD and has a startle effect on the individual, but does not cause prolonged or intense pain.
Watch the video below to learn more about the Bola Wrap and see it in action!
Interviews filmed during deputy training on this new tool in late-November, hence, the “No Shave November” beards.
