North Fulton SWAT force merges 4 cities into 1 team By HANNAH YAHNE hannah@appenmedia.com NOR TH FULTON, Ga. — When students leave school for the summer, the North Fulton SWAT team moves in. Police officers from across four cities gathered at Chattahoochee High School June 9 to run through a range of scenarios – including active shooter response – in what Zachary Frommer, commander of North Fulton SWAT and a captain of the Roswell Police

Department, called a routine training. The North Fulton SWAT team was formed in 2012 and consists of 65 officers who respond to highstakes situations, such as barricaded subjects or hostage negotiations. In addition to training together twice a month, officers from Alpharetta, Roswell, Johns Creek and Milton routinely respond to critical incidents together, because “crime knows no borders or jurisdictions,” Frommer said. “We’re generally going to go back

up the other teams anyway,” he said. “So, it makes sense to train together and combine resources.” Learning the layout One of the primary objectives of joint training is to remove unknowns before officers respond to a crisis. For instance, when walking into Chattahoochee High School, officers recognized the layout as similar to other area high schools – knowledge that can be critical under pressure. “Immediately, that takes away a

lot of unknowns,” Capt. Rick Fiorenza of Fulton County Schools Police said. “The more familiarity we can bring in to that, it eliminates a lot of these unknowns and makes it a lot more comfortable, a lot more effective to respond … should something happen.” Fulton County Schools has its own police force that responds with South Fulton SWAT to supplement personnel in that area.
