On the Security Scene

Domestic Disturbance

On Saturday, July 9, Chatham County Police Department (CCPD) responded to a domestic incident where a subject barricaded himself inside a residence. The SWAT team was called, and the suspect surrendered. An email was sent to residents regarding TLA’s involvement in situations involving law enforcement agencies having jurisdiction, mass communication decisions, and the authority of the on-scene commander, as well as the primary concern for responding Officer safety.
