USE OF DEADLY FORCE. A. An officer is authorized to use deadly force if an objectively reasonable officer would believe, based on the totality of the circumstances known to the officer at the time and without the benefit of hindsight, that such force is necessary. Use of deadly force is justified when one or both of the following apply;
1. To protect the peace officer or another from death or great bodily harm, provided that the threat:
i. can be articulated with specificity;
ii. is reasonably likely to occur absent action by the law enforcement officer; and
iii. must be addressed through the use of deadly force without unreasonable delay; or
2. To effect the arrest or capture, or prevent the escape, of a person whom the peace officer knows or has reasonable grounds to believe has committed or attempted to commit a felony and the officer reasonably believes that the person will cause death or great bodily harm to another person under the threat criteria in section IX: A, subpart 1, items (a) to (c), unless immediately apprehended.
B. An officer shall not use deadly force against a person based on the danger the person poses to self if an objectively reasonable officer would believe, based on the totality of the circumstances known to the officer at the time and without the benefit of hindsight, that the person does not pose a threat of death or great bodily harm to the peace officer or to another under the threat criteria in section IX: A, subpart 1, items (a) to (c).
C. Where feasible, the officer shall identify themselves as a law enforcement officer and warn of his or her intent to use deadly force.
D. Officers involved in, or witnessing, an incident in which deadly force was used or the use of force resulted in great bodily harm, are responsible for ensuring that:
1. No further threat to safety exists.
2. Aid is rendered to any injured person(s) when it is reasonable to do so.
3. They follow the procedure and protocol of Directive O-02.
USE OF DEADLY FORCE. A. Investigations: The parties recognize that it is critical for the Department to investigate instances regarding the use of force. In such cases, the Department may have to carry out three (3) separate investigations, which are:
1. An internal investigation to see if procedures were violated;
2. An investigation to determine the incident will cause any civil liability for the Department; and
3. An investigation as to whether criminal laws of the state were violated. Both parties recognize the potential for extreme stress for the officer(s) involved in a use of force incident. Use of force incidents are highly traumatic, and if not handled properly can cause a police officer's career to end prematurely, often within five (5) years of the incident. The officer(s) involved in such incidents need access to adequate assistance and/or treatment for the stress involved. In the mutual interest of the Department and individual officers involved, the Department will attempt to obtain the information it requires in a manner that recognizes the stressful nature of these incidents and also minimizes the deleterious effects upon the subject officer's career.
USE OF DEADLY FORCE. For use of deadly force situations the process and procedural terms of Article 10 related to Discipline and Discharge shall apply to Police Reserves except Police Reserves will not have just cause protection, and they shall be at-will volunteers who are not entitled to recourse under the Grievance Articles.
