## Resource

Edmonton’s police force is tackling rising violence tied to extortion cases, while showing surprising safety stats: 86% of incidents end without civilian injuries, and officers go untouched in 97.5% of encounters. De-escalation training and even baton phase-outs are on the table to cut costs and improve outcomes. Though suspect chases are unpredictable, police stop 95% of pursuits—often in under a minute—and excel at preventing crises, like intercepting drunk drivers before they become dangerous. The focus? Data-driven, big-picture solutions that work across the board. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
