Abstract:
:A comparison study of the American style ASP extendible police baton with the conventional UK police wooden truncheon was performed. It was found that the ASP baton generated approximately twice the contact pressure than the conventional wooden truncheon. A discussion on the medical/legal aspects of the results are given.
