Special operations response team


Picture
The Sevier County Sheriff's Office Special Operations Response Team (S.O.R.T.) Team consists of  highly motivated, specially trained officers that excel at performing very specialized missions under extremely stressful circumstances, sometimes with very little advance notice.  Each team member possesses a variety of skills and experience.  When brought together, these members function as a single unit within a team concept, which allows missions to be completed thoroughly and safely.
The S.O.R.T. Team’s primary objective is to ensure the safety of all persons involved in any mission in which the S.O.R.T. Team is deployed.  Concern for the public’s safety, as well as the team's safety, cannot be stressed enough as the S.O.R.T. Team executes its missions.
Examples of missions which would commonly involve S.W.A.T. include, but are not limited to:
  • High Risk Warrant Service
  • Fugitive Apprehension
  • Hostage Situations
  • Barricaded Subjects
  • Dignitary Protection
  • High Profile Events (Example: Concerts, Graduations, Sporting events.)
