5/109.09 SUPERVISORS TACTIC FOR ARMED SUBJECT RESPONSE (STAR PROTOCOL) Flashcards
Why is it critical for Supervisors to arrive on scene when dealing with critical incidents?
Police Executive Research Forum (PERF) states The sooner supervisors arrive at the scene, the more likely they can contain it, ‘slow it down,’ and avoid the temptation to feel that immediate action is always required.
What MUST a Supervisor do when a STAR Protocol is broadcasted?
Announce their acknowledgement and self-dispatch to the call. If unavailable to respond, will ensure Communications requests a sergeant/lieutenant from another area command to respond.
If an incident occurred as a result of a STAR Protocol what must a Supervisor do at the conclusion of the event?
