US police use guns to tie suspects like Batman's weapons

US police are using a rope gun shot very similar to the superhero equipment Batman often uses to suppress criminals.

According to the Los Angeles Times, about 100 police departments across the US are using the Wrapola 's BolaWrap 100 device . From January 2020, the Los Angeles Police Department will also test the device.

The BolaWrap 100 gun shoots out a Kevlar cord to control crime. The cord was released at a speed of 195 m / s and could wrap 3 around the suspect's body without pain.

When police use a BolaWrap gun, the device will sound like a gunshot. The two ends of Kevlar rope have knots, which will attach tightly to the object after touching. It will help harden the criminal's hands or feet.

Each BolaWrap is about $ 1,250. In November, the Santa Cruz County Police Department in Northern California spent $ 25,000 on 20 BolaWrap cars.
