Policies
The national #8CantWait campaign, also known as the Police Use of Force Project, encourages cities to adopt eight use-of-force policies for their police departments:
- Ban chokeholds and strangleholds
- Require de-escalation
- Require warning before shooting
- Require exhaust all alternatives before shooting
- Duty to intervene
- Ban shooting at moving vehicles
- Require use of force continuum
- Require comprehensive reporting
The Edina Police Department’s existing policies incorporate these bans, requirements and duties. Those issues are addressed in the Department’s policies. The Use-of-Force policies can be viewed online in the policy manual below.
The full policy manual for the Edina Police Department is linked below, organized by section.
