“At first, they called it the Batman tool,” said Don De Lucca, a BolaWrap public safety representative.
The BolaWrap shoots out Kevlar cord that wraps around a subject and restrains them from a distance of about 10 to 25 feet away. It’s compared to a remote set of handcuffs, and wraps around the subject s legs and arms.
“It seems simple, but I was in policing since 1981, and all I know is we went from verbal commands to hands-on wrestling on the ground,” De Lucca said. “Fortunately, the optics of what we do is important and how we handle things. This is seen as a humane restraint in order to secure somebody and get them the help they need.”
