A federal agency plans to acquire equipment to halt moving vehicles. This decision follows incidents where agents fatally shot drivers who did not stop for unmarked vehicles. The drivers were not the intended targets of the operations.

A contract for the purchase has been dated, with the agency set to spend a specified amount on a system from a particular company. The company, based in Phoenix, produces a product that fits the description of the equipment being purchased.

Further information on this development is available, including details on the temporary suspension of vehicle pursuits and the reversal of this decision.
