Escambia Sheriff’s TAC Team Dismantled
April 25, 2014
The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office TAC Team has been dismantled.
The TAC team often worked with the U.S. Marshals Regional Task Force to arrest felony suspects, and the group targeted high crime areas of the county.
According to Sheriff David Morgan, members of the TAC team were reassigned to areas that included patrol and investigations.
“In the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office’s continuing efforts to improve our process it has been determined that it is statistically not feasible to maintain the TAC team. Due to critical shortages in Patrol and Investigations, these officers will be reassigned,” Morgan said in a prepared statement.
