Northfield police got some specialized training during Defensive Tactics Training Week.
Officers focused on Brazilian jiu-jitsu techniques and principles, including leverage, control and distance management, that help officers safely manage and control resisting subjects while reducing the risk of injury to everyone involved.
Their training was aided by black belt Rich Komar, co-owner of Downbeach Jiu-Jitsu in Margate.
The retired Galloway Township police officer demonstrated mount escapes and defensive techniques.
