SIOUX CITY (KTIV) - Law enforcement officials are put into dangerous situations each and every day. They are expected to de-escalate and defuse each situation, from a routine traffic stop to a mass casualty event, safely and ensure the safety of the civilians they protect and serve.

For the Sioux City Police Department, being able to respond to any situation and have its officers resolve that situation safely is paramount. That is why the department takes pride in its officers continuously training to best protect the community they serve.

“We are big on training,” said Sioux City Police Sgt. Tom Gill. “As far as many of the police departments go, we’re probably one of the best as far as sending officers to training and we constantly train our officers to be better out in the field.”
