Foot Pursuit Protocol

Use of Force: Officers may use a combination of tackles and tasers, up to three times total, at their discretion.
Taser Rules: Each shot counts, even if missed. A missed shot cannot be retried.
Force Intervals: A 15-second gap is required between each use of force (tackle or taser). Count this internally.
After Three Attempts: If the suspect still flees, officers may use a baton, maintaining the 15-second interval, until the suspect is incapacitated for arrest.
Compliance: If the suspect surrenders, instruct them to raise their hands, face away, and announce they will be placed in cuffs and arrested.
