Profiling Detroit’s SWAT team

The Free Press reported today ^[1]that Detroit’s Special Weapons and Tactics officers will be featured on A&E’s SWAT ^[2]series starting October 5.

Currently, the show focuses on Dallas’ SWAT team, following specific officers on missions and giving viewers a bird’s-eye view of the types of things — drug raids, hostage rescues — the members of this elite unit face ever day – both on the job and off.

New episodes focused on the Detroit Police Department’s ^[3]Special Response Team will cover similar ground.

For more information on what it takes to become SWAT-certified in metro Detroit, check out Darren Nichols’ article ^[4] in Monday’s online edition of the Detroit News ^[5].
