S.W.A.T. is now operational.
We should ONLY be called for serious operations and S.W.A.T. members have the judgement call as to whether they should respond based on guidelines we have.
If we called for too many 'minor' things we will eventually refuse call outs and work on our OWN judgement from start, think about it, it costs for S.W.A.T. to operate and we must be able to justify this effective response.
DO NOT expect S.W.A.T. to arrive on scene instantly...
It takes a little time for us to group and get equipped suitably.. We will however endevour to arrive as quick as possible in one form or another.
In this time SAPD/FBI can try to secure the scene for S.W.A.T. to arrive, and you may even be fortunate to have a S.W.A.T. team member present from start who will run co-ordination until the main team arrives.
You might even get asked to assist S.W.A.T. durectly when we have low numbers on duty, consider this an honor and help in anyway possible. (dont ask S.W.A.T. they may ask you)
