Law enforcement officers demonstrate state-of-the-art crime-fighting weapons that make apprehending criminals less dangerous for both policemen and offenders. Using actual footage from real crime-fighting situations, policemen discuss, then demonstrate, the use of alternative weapons such as tear gas, percussion distraction instruments, animal nets, pervasive aqueous foam, and pepper spray.
