Brooklyn Park's Tactical Response Unit, the city's SWAT-style team, served a high-risk search warrant at a home in the 6700 block of 88th Avenue North on Wednesday, detaining two adult females and two juvenile males without incident. Officers cleared the residence, then left the property in the care and control of detectives on scene.
Police Say Warrant Went Smoothly
According to Brooklyn Park Police, members of the Tactical Response Unit carried out the operation and detained all four people safely. The department's post notes that officers cleared the residence and all detained parties. It did not list any charges or provide additional details about what investigators were looking for, or why the warrant was classified as high risk.
What The Tactical Response Unit Does
As outlined on the city's police services page, the Tactical Response Unit is a specialized team trained to serve high-risk search and arrest warrants and to handle situations involving potentially armed or barricaded subjects. The department's public materials state that the unit receives additional weapons training and coordinates warrant service in an effort to minimize risk to both officers and nearby residents, per Brooklyn Park Police.
How This Fits Recent Tactical Callouts
The department has deployed the tactical unit for similar warrant services in recent months, and local coverage of past operations shows the team has been used in early-morning warrant services that in some cases led to arrests. KSTP previously reported on an earlier high-risk warrant that resulted in multiple arrests, and a recent high-risk warrant in the city was also carried out by the Tactical Response Unit.
