Disorder Control General Assignment Guidelines and Tactics for Police Officers While Assigned to a Civil Disorder Incident

. Your appearance is critical - The initial impression we make upon disorderly and violent groups has a profound effect on the outcome of the incident. Therefore, ensure your uniform and required equipment are neat and in proper working condition. Always have disorder control equipment, including helmet and baton, ready for immediate use.
A strong military appearance, with sharp and precise movements, is a force multiplier and a psychological advantage to us.

. Follow direction of your supervisor.
. Do not act independently - work as a team.
. Use minimum force necessary to achieve the objectives.
. Be tolerant of verbal abuse - crowds may attempt to provoke you.
. When advancing a disorder situation, stay in formation.
. While in formation, keep one arm's length distance between you and the adjoining officer.
. Utilize on-guard stance in line and wedge formations.
. Clearly distinguish between participants to be arrested and innocent passers-by and onlookers.
. Be aware of dangers from high ground (i.e., so-called, air mail).
. Maintain firearms discipline.
. Never become complacent.
. Do not break formation or act independently. Think... team!!
. Do not enter rooftops or alleys alone or when in civilian clothes, except when ordered by supervisor.
. Do not engage in unnecessary conversation.
. Do not congregate with other officers on post.
. Do not make unauthorized radio transmissions.
. Do not abandon your post, unless authorized by a supervisor. If authorized to leave post, ensure your direct supervisor knows your location and has a method of contact for you.
. Do not engage in unauthorized pursuits of looters or bottle throwers - let people escape unless your team is effecting arrests.
