Riot Response Unit

The Riot Response Unit (RRU) is a unit of the Territorial Police Force tasked with dispersing and controlling riots and disorderly behaviour.

Formation
The Riot Response Unit was founded primarily to support the Greater Manchester Police in riot situations or when they are outnumbered by civilians.

Work
The RRU works closely with the Non-Lethal Response Unit, as they help provide non-lethal firepower against rioters and violent protesters.
