Truman Bolden, consists of officers who are highly trained and equipped to work as a coordinated team to resolve critical incidents that are hazardous, complex, or unusual and may exceed the capabilities of first responders or investigative units. The Newark Police Department’s S.W.A.T. team is currently comprised of sworn members, including a Team Commander and Team Leaders. S.W.A.T. also has two members trained as an advanced Sniper/Observer Team. The team trains bi-weekly to remain abreast with tactics and ensure operational readiness.
