Bola wrap

This article and brief video report a new less-lethal technology that shoots a 8-foot Kevlar tether up to 25 feet. The device is designed to immobilize a subject who is resisting arrest or failing to respond to deescalation, such as someone experiencing mental health crisis. Illinois officials were impressed with the product demonstration and several California agencies are currently testing it.
