The arrest of suspects involves a risk of violence. Police officers must use various pieces of equipment to protect themselves as they try to maintain public safety. Through technology, some unique equipment used by law enforcement officers has been developed.

This lesson focuses upon two historical crime case studies that involve law enforcement safety equipment and police canines. Each case study is based on actual historical events. The first case study is “The North Hollywood Shootout”; the second is “Police Canine Makes the Ultimate Sacrifice”.

You are expected to answer the related questions about these case studies in your assignment.
