Most applications of force are minimal, with officers using their hands, arms or bodies to push or pull against a suspect to gain control. Officers are also trained to use various other force techniques and weapons to overcome resistance. These include less-lethal weapons such as pepper spray, batons or conducted energy devices (CEDs) such as Tasers. They can also use firearms to defend themselves or others against threats of death or serious bodily injuries."  aUSO DE FORÇA  aACTUAÇÃO POLICIAL  aARMA NÃO LETAL  aTÉCNICA DE IMOBILIZAÇÃO  aESTADOS UNIDOSbDepartment of Justice.
