We believe it is critical for us to have the Police Department's procedures and policies reviewed by an outside entity who can make recommendations on training to our officers to either prevent or deescalate Use of Force situations.
The City of Phoenix Police Department has experienced 26 Officer Involved Shootings (OIS) this calendar year. In each instance, the subject had a weapon (gun, knife, or dangerous instrument). Thankfully no officer have been physically injured. This is a disturbing trend and the Police Department is very concerned about the safety of our officers and those persons whom we serve in the community.
