(Grand Forks, ND) — Grand Forks police are preparing to test a new, less forceful restraint device. BolaWrap shoots out a nearly eight-foot kevlar cord that wraps around a person needing to be restrained. Police say the device is a way for police to deescalate situations that don’t need a forceful response. The department received an over 21-hundred dollar grant from ONEOK to purchase the devices. They haven’t been used in the field yet.
