Emergency
Response
Team
The
Hillsdale County Sheriff’s Office Emergency Response Team was formed in
2003. The team consists of a Tactical Commander, and two five man teams,
. Supporting the ERT team are crisis
negotiation members. The team responds to an average of six high risk calls a
year, such as barricaded subject’s or high risk arrest situations .
The
team trains each month for a variety of different possible deployments in order
to be best prepared to take whatever reasonable steps necessary to prevent harm
to the community.
The service this team has provided to the citizens of Hillsdale
County, is evidenced by the successful conclusion of the many calls for service
they have safely handled during the past year.
