Snatch Squads

Introduction

Snatch squads are divided into two categories, Arrest and Restraint Teams and Stalking Teams. The duties and tactics of these two groups are interrelated. This chapter will explain some of the training, planning and preparation used by Snatch Squads. This should give the reader a more realistic appraisal of the skills required for this form of combat.

This chapter will be divided into four sections.

  1. The role, composition, tactics and training of Arrest and Restraint Teams.
  2. The role, composition and some of the tactics and training of the Stalking Teams.
  3. The offensive grappling techniques used by Stalking Teams.
  4. Rear attacks.

Section 1 - Arrest and Restraint Teams

Introduction

Arrest and Restraint Teams are employed in urban environments. They are responsible for detaining individuals for processing through the intelligence and legal system. Arrest and Restraint Teams are constrained by minimum force requirements in their application of restraints and rear attacks. These teams are usually supported by armed and mobile units.

Composition of the Teams

Ideally a 4 person team should be employed to pick up one individual. In a riot situation there are three basic methods of deployment. The first two start from behind friendly lines. This is not the most productive method because the target can see the team coming. Also, the target is difficult to reach without members of the team being injured or captured themselves.

  • The team move out fast in diamond formation and run to either the left or the right of the targeted individual. In a riot situation, they should always run past the target to drive back the crowd and isolate the target. Running straight for the target will alert that individual and defeat the aims of the snatch squad.
  • The team operate as two pairs. The two pairs run to either side of and behind the target. They then turn and carry out the lift.
  • The most productive method of deployment is for the team to operate within the crowd, dressed similarly to the crowd. Upon a prearranged signal, they carry out the lift.
  • Another productive method of arrest is to employ the teams in civilian dress from civilian vehicles.

Basic Principles

The four basic principles of come alongs are;

  1. Stop. This is the task of Soldiers #1 & 2. The targeted individual must be stopped and isolated from any support or escape routes. At this stage, determine if the target has a weapon in their hands before grappling with them. Attack the nerve points on the legs to either slow down or stop the individual. The upper body nerve points may also have to be attacked.
  2. Distract. This is the task of Soldiers #1 & #2. It will be impossible to apply a restraint without first distracting the individual. Distractions include more strikes to the main nerve points in order to temporarily disable the limb you are going for.
  3. Restrain. As soon as one of the team applies a successful lock the other team member reinforces that lock with their own lock. The sequence of events is dictated by the targets response. There are no hard and fast rules.
  4. Move. Move as fast as possible with the captor conforming to keep the pressure off their joints. Soldiers #3 & 4 are providing cover for all phases of the operation.

The Nerve Points

Figure 1 illustrates the areas of the human body where the nervous system crosses the bones. Either strikes or direct pressure to these point will press the nerves against the bone. These attacks can cause a few seconds of either mental or physical shock which gives you time to apply the restraint. Both forms of Snatch Squad utilise these Nerve Points.

The nerve points numbered from 1-8 are located on both sides of the body. This gives a total of 16 points to attack.

Figure 1

Point 1 - The Superscapular Nerve. This located centrally on the ridge of muscle that runs from the base of the neck below the ear lobe to the shoulder. Hit downwards with the hammer fist, chop or baton edge. Avoid striking to the front of this ridge because you run the risk of breaking the collar bone.

Point 2 - The Femoral Nerve This is located in front of the hip joint where the stomach and leg create a fold. Hit straight in to collapse the leg or jackknife the upper body forward. Hit with a side kick, punch, baton butt or point.

Point 3 - The Sciatic and Tibial Nerves These are located centrally, behind the thigh bone, extending from the fold of the back side to the knee fold. Hit in using toe or side kicks, baton point or butt.

Point 4 - The Posterior Tibial Nerve This is located centrally on the calf muscles of both legs. Hit in using toe kicks, side kicks, thumb pressure, baton point or butt.

Point 5 - The Common Peroneal Nerve This is located on the outside of the thigh, four finger widths above the knee cap. Hit in using side kicks, knee kicks, roundhouse shin kicks or the baton edge. Striking too low, on the side of the knee cap, will break the leg.

Point 6 - The Saphenous Nerve This is located to the soft inner side of the thigh, four finger widths above the knee cap. Hit in at an angle to impact the nerve against the thigh bone. Use toe kicks, knees, baton point or butt.

Point 7 - The Median Nerve, Ulnar Nerve and Radius Nerve This cluster of nerves are most vulnerable two finger widths above the elbow joint. They are on the soft side of the upper arm which lies next to the ribs. Hit this area with a reverse knife hand, punch or baton edge to impact the nerves agains the bone of the upper arm and collapse the arm into the hammer lock position.

Point 8 - The Supercavicular Nerve This is located behind the ridge of neck muscle just below the ear lobes. It can be attacked with palm heel, baton edge or chops to this ridge of muscle..

The human body will react in specific ways to nerve point attacks, you can confirm this with hands on training. For example, in order to apply a straight arm bar, get the opponent to jack knife forward with both arms outstretched by punching to the hip joint area (Point 2).
