Marshallville Police Department
Marshallville Officers are now equipped with the X26 TASER®
The
X26 Taser will allow law enforcement officers to protect themselves without
causing injury or death to another human being. Most confrontations do not
justify the use of lethal force, but you should not have to expose yourself
to risk of injury from physical confrontation with a violent combatant.
Effective non-lethal weapons do increase the safety of law enforcement
officers, decrease suspect injuries, improve community relations, reduce
litigation and police department medical and liability insurance costs, and
have saved thousands of lives.
The
ADVANCED TASER®
product uses proprietary technology to incapacitate
dangerous, combative, or high-risk subjects that may be impervious to other
non-lethal means, regardless of pain tolerance, drug use, or body size -
factors that cause other non-lethal options to have decreased effectiveness.
The ADVANCED TASER also has a lower injury rate than other non-lethal
weapons and has had no reported long-term, adverse after-effects.
The ADVANCED
TASER®
uses
an Electro-Muscular Disruption (EMD) technology that will stop a focused,
goal oriented subject from up to 21 feet away.
Through May of 2003, over 2,500 police departments in the United States and abroad have purchased TASER products, and over 200 police departments - including Phoenix, San Diego, Sacramento, Albuquerque and Reno - have purchased TASER® products for every patrol officer.
We believe the X26 will transform law enforcement and become a vital tool for patrol level law enforcement offices around the world.
