The Town of Ramapo Police Department is continuing to upgrade its tools and training, with a focus on using modern technology in the field.

On Tuesday evening, Ramapo PD instructors held one of several transition training sessions for the new Taser 10, a more advanced and user-friendly less-lethal device. The updated system is designed to help officers make better decisions in high-pressure situations while providing an effective alternative to more serious force.

Ramapo Police also thanked the Axon team for its role in developing and supporting the equipment.

In a statement, the department said it is committed to moving forward with technology, saying it plays a key role in protecting lives and supporting officers on the job.
