Police and Badging
Emergency Response Team
The emergency response (ERT) tactical team includes airport police officers and Allina paramedics.
In addition to having received basic SWAT training, team members train monthly, sometimes traveling to Fort Dodge in Iowa or to Camp Ripley in northern Minnesota for joint training with the FBI. They also practice with tactical teams from several local law enforcement agencies.
The ERT team would be activated in situations such as:
- Security Threat Level Orange or Red
- Special aircraft needs
- High risk arrest
- Barricaded suspect
- Rescue of captured, isolated or injured persons
- Assist other agencies
