Learn and protect: Danville police officers receive de-escalation training

Read full article: Learn and protect: Danville police officers receive de-escalation training

DANVILLE, Va. โ€“ Officers with the Danville Police Department recently relearned how to serve and protect without using deadly force. The department hosted de-escalation training for all of its officers over the past two months, including a session for its Church Patrol Friday morning. The training featured numerous real-world examples of police de-escalation, as well as peaceful procedural guidelines for officers. โ€œAnything that makes our agency better in serving our community, Iโ€™m a huge fan of.โ€In addition to the classroom portions of the training, fellow Danville officers re-enacted scenarios where the lessons would come into play. โ€œIf you come in screaming, โ€˜Drop the knife, drop the knife,โ€™ and cursing, does that favor de-escalation?โ€™โ€ said Danville Police Cpl.
