13News reporter Emily Longnecker dives into the new training village opened by IMPD.
Construction on the training center won't be complete until next year, but new recruits are already using it, a spokesperson said.They're taking recruits through real-world scenarios in a setting designed to replicate a neighborhood, complete with homes and businesses.Recruits will see a variety of situations with role-playing training officers. The training is based on the types of calls IMPD officers get every day.IMPD Recruits are already training there as construction continues.
In some of the training, recruits will learn how to de-escalate a situation. If an officer does have to pull out their firearm, the scenario will end with the suspect complying. IMPD says the training is about communication. "Everything they're encountering is, 'How do I de-escalate this? At what point is it not de-escalating and do I need to step in and go hands on?' But we exhaust all the other measures first, before they have to get to that point," said Hershberger.
