Title: Electronic Control Weapons in Massachusetts: Trends in Growth 2010-2014

Summary: During 2014, the number of Electronic Control Weapon (ECW) incidents increased from 949 to 980, an increase of 3.3%. This marked the smallest rate of growth since yearend 2010. Growth in the number of ECW incidents peaked in 2011 with an increase of 89.5% (246 incidents). Since 2011, the growth in ECW usage slowed to 61.4% at yearend 2012, and 12.8% at yearend 2013 (percentage point drops of 48.6% and 9.5%, respectively). This growth in ECW incidents can be partly attributed to an increase in the number of ECW approved agencies, i.e., law enforcement agencies in Massachusetts with EOPSS approved ECW training programs, ECW trained officers, and ECW devices owned by ECW approved agencies (Table 1).
