ICLEAR process
1. Identify and Isolate - the location and the subject(s) 2. Containment - SLOCEEI (see below) 3. Long Guns and Less Lethal - appropriate resources requested and deployed 4. Evacuate or Shelter in Place and Expand - create an outer perimeter 5. Authorities - Is there a criminal offence? Is a warrant required? 6. React Plans - What ifs? Pre-plan and communicate for potential outcomes (Suspect surrender, Suspect escape, Immediate action plan)
31
SLOCEEI (Seven sequential steps of containment )
1. Situation assessment 2. Location verification 3. Observation position 4. Containment in place 5. Evacuation 6. Expand outer perimeter 7. Isolate
32
COUNGL (Six principles of tactical movement)
1. Choose a route 2. Open/close doors 3. Use angles to your advantage 4. Noise discipline 5. Gun stance 6. Lighting considerations
33
IRD
Immediate Rapid Deployment
34
LSLPBI (IRD)
Look for stimulus. Stop deadly behavior. Limit suspect movement. Prevent escape (access to additional victims). Bypass injured victims. Initiate containment if suspect is located and it is confirmed the killing has stopped (transition into barricaded subject procedures).
35
LTSA (IRD)
Location and number of suspects Type of weapon(s) involved. Safe approach route. Areas of responsibility.
36
EEN (IRD)
* Enter and/or approach the location to locate the victim(s). * Extract victim(s) to a safe area--the Casualty Collection Point (CCP)-and notify the Incident Commander. The CCP is a carefully selected area or room within or near the premises where the Rescue Team(s) will collect extracted casualties and where first aid can be safely provided. Usually this room or area will be protected by armed officers and has access to exterior doors. * Notify medical personnel if necessary.
37
CCP (IRD)
Casualty Collection Point
38
EEI
* Expand the Rescue Team size or the number of teams. Multiple teams are more useful than teams larger than 4-5 members. * Emphasize custody and control. * Initiate identification and accountability of victims.
