Hallandale Beach SWAT team steps down, outraged over police chief kneeling with protesters
In the memo, the officers say the SWAT team was minimally equipped, under trained and restrained. The memo says the safety of dogs was given priority over the safety of the officers at times.
“The risk of carrying out our duties in this capacity is no longer acceptable to us and our families,” the memo says. “The anguish and stress of knowing that what we may be lawfully called upon to do in today’s political climate combined with the team’s current situation and several recent local events., leaves us in a position that is untenable.”
But these reasons weren’t all that prompted the officers to step down. Hallandale Beach Police Chief Quiñones kneeling with protesters, including a “handful of political activists,” was “most shocking” of all, the memo states.
Isn't Broward County Debbie Wasserman Schuler's District?
