02-11-2002:News photograph from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel of what many never see on presidential visits: Some of the heavier firepower carried by the Secret Service. This photo is taken of one of the motorcade trailing Suburbans. What many others may not know is that there is another team of Secret Service fully decked out in SWAT gear, with M4 carbines. There are plenty of suits with MP5s handy too, as well. He appears to be motioning the photographer away. MP5A3 with Navy trigger group selected to semi.

Yesterday (Saturday) afternoon, local time the Swedish Police National Taskforce apprehended eight heavily armed criminals at a Hotel in the Swedish city of Falun. The eight criminals were attending a meeting set up by two rival gangs to solve disputes on territory and business. After a long period of surveillance the Swedish Police decided that the danger for innocent bystanders was too great after receiving information that several of the suspects were heavily armed. 20 officers from the National Taskforce, backed up by local police made the entry at about 15.00 hours local time. Flash-Bang grenades and blank ammo were used to distract the suspects. A total of four handguns, one shotgun, one submachine gun/assault rifle and one hand grenade were found during the body search of the apprehended suspects - subsequently linked by video evidence to each person.
