"International Police Chiefs Group Issues New Shoot-To-Kill Guidelines for Confronting Suicide Bombers, Newspaper Reports"

ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON (AP) --

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "In the United States, the National Bomb Squad Commanders Advisory Board is developing the first national guidelines for responding to suicide bombers, the newspaper said.

''There is not a responsible chief or head of a law enforcement agency in this country who isn't now pondering the dilemma a suicide bomber presents to their officers,'' U.S. Capitol Police Chief Terrance W. Gainer told the Post. Gainer's force is responsible for protecting members of Congress, their staff members and visitors to the U.S. Capitol.

Last year, Gainer became the first U.S. police chief to adopt a shoot-to-kill policy if his officers confront a suspected suicide bomber who is uncooperative, and other U.S. law enforcement agencies are considering adopting a similar policy, the newspaper said.

''I can guarantee you that if we have, God forbid, a suicide bomber in a big city in the United States, 'shoot to kill' will be the inevitable policy,'' the Post quoted Miami Police Chief John F. Timoney as saying. ''It's not a policy we choose lightly, but it's the only policy.''

Police in Israel and Britain, which have a long history of dealing with terrorist attacks, have adopted a national policy of shooting a suspected suicide bomber in the head to prevent detonation of a bomb.

The International Association of Chiefs of Police, responding to the July 7 attacks on three London subways and a double-decker bus that killed 52 people, produced a training guide for dealing with suicide bombers for its 20,000 members, the newspaper said."
