Use of Force Policy - FAQs
No.
“Chokeholds” and “strangleholds” are, by their very definition, designed to restrict airflow. Because of the obvious danger, these types of holds were eliminated from our use of force policy years ago.
Additionally, we have recently updated our Use of Force policy prohibiting applications of force that restrict oxygen or blood flow to the head or neck. Policy now specifically prohibits "chokeholds", "strangleholds", Lateral Vascular Neck Restraints® , and the carotid control hold, unless, in those rare circumstances deadly force is justified.
