INDIANAPOLIS — The death of George Floyd at the hands of a Minneapolis Police officer is putting new attention on the training of police officers. 
Here in Indianapolis, the commander of the Metro Police training academy said nothing has changed. The academy wasn't teaching officers to use chokeholds at the time of Floyd's death and isn't now.
But according to IMPD Commander Catherine Cummings, there are new tools and tactics aimed at de-escalating confrontations before anyone gets hurt. 
"Bola! Bola! Bola!" shouted an instructor before he fired a BolaWrap at a volunteer officer. 
With the speed of a gunshot, but with none of the danger, the "suspect's" ankles were bound with a Kevlar cord. He couldn't move.
