Of all the police and corrections teams practicing their skills at the 2007 Mock Riot in Moundsville, West Virginia, the Kansas-based 705th Military Police Battalion was the most impressive.

In their first scenario they were faced with hostage-takers in a crowded, multi-floor split cell block that forced the cops' traditional phalanx to divide. But like water they streamed around the obstacles and quickly reformed while a sniper kept watch from the second floor and soldiers on the edges of the formation peeled off to tackle bad guys popping out of darkened cells. It was brutal, but I suppose that was the point. You can't give the rioters an inch.

In their second scenario, the MPs used a Long-Range Acoustic Device -- a real-life sonic blaster -- to disorient rioting inmates in a dining hall then stormed in firing nonlethal bullets. See for yourself:
