The Brevard County Sheriff’s Office released a video on March 12, 2026, showing its SWAT team during a training exercise known as 'Ride 10-94.' The footage, available on the agency’s website, captures deputies preparing for high-risk scenarios such as hostage situations and barricaded suspects. The video includes scenes of tactical gear being donned, armored vehicles, and coordination between team members. Sheriff Wayne Ivey said the release aims to show the public the work SWAT deputies do daily. 'This isn’t just about training,' Ivey said. 'It’s about transparency and making sure residents understand the level of preparation required for dangerous calls.' The 10-minute video includes both simulated and real-world scenarios. It shows deputies practicing breaching doors, using non-lethal equipment, and communicating with a crisis negotiation team. The footage was filmed during a routine training session at the sheriff’s office training facility in Titusville. The video has been viewed more than 50,000 times since its release. Deputy Chief Carlos Mendez said the department plans to release more training videos in the coming months. 'We want to demystify what SWAT does,' Mendez said. 'Not every call is a high-speed chase. Sometimes it’s about patience and de-escalation.' The video includes a scene where deputies practice a 'no-knock' entry, a technique used in emergencies. It also shows the use of drones and thermal imaging cameras during a simulated search operation. The sheriff’s office said the video was edited to remove sensitive details, such as the identities of personnel involved. The release comes as the agency faces increased public scrutiny following a series of high-profile incidents in 2025. The video is part of a broader effort to improve community relations, according to a statement from the sheriff’s office. 'We’re not hiding behind the badge anymore,' Ivey said. 'We want people to see the work we do and understand why we do it.'
