Containment Team

The Containment Team consists of 12 officers. These officers vary in rank, experience and police units and have extra training and equipment to respond to high risk calls. The Team works with other WPS units, negotiators and Incident Commanders to safely contain and arrest armed, barricaded or high-risk people. They also assist in the execution of search warrants. Members of the Containment Team respond to these high risk calls while on shift and on an on-call basis.
