The Butler County Sheriff’s Office Bomb Unit has been operational since 1980. During that time, equipment has evolved with technology. The Sheriff’s Office Bomb Unit continually strives to stay abreast of developing threats and remedies.
The
Bomb Unit conducts public presentations to explain the positive use of
explosives and to make both children and adults familiar with these hazardous
items they may encounter. These demonstrations show the power of
selected quantities of explosives and the directional effects that can be
produced. Bomb Unit personnel both photograph and record the
materials used and blast effects for reference resources in actual bombing
cases.
The bomb threat
potential prompts a continuing review of the Butler County Bomb Threat Policy.
The evolving policy modifications and related training needs in Butler county.
These reviews are a joint effort of the Butler County Sheriff’s Office, Butler
County Commissioner and the Department of Safety. Training session formats
included search techniques as well as the identification/recognition of
explosive components and suspected explosive devices.
