Question: 1 / 50

When should a use of force report be written?

When you arrest someone and place handcuffs on them

When you are defending yourself from an assailant

When your security dog runs off and attacks someone

All of the above

A use of force report should be written in all of the aforementioned scenarios as it is required for any use of force by law enforcement. Option A is incorrect because an arrest alone does not necessarily indicate the use of force. Option B may lead to a use of force report, but it could also be considered self-defense and therefore not require a report. Option C, while involving an animal, still falls under the category of use of force and would require a report. It is important for officers to document and report any use of force to ensure accountability and transparency in their actions.
