Active Shooter
S An active shooter is an individual actively engaged in killing or
attempting to kill people in a confined and populated area; in most
cases, active shooters use firearm(s) and there is no pattern or
method to their selection of victims. Active shooter situations are
unpredictable and evolve quickly. Typically, the immediate
deployment of law enforcement is required to stop the shooting
and mitigate harm to victims. Because active shooter situations are
often over within 10-15 minutes, before law enforcement is on the
scene, individuals must be prepared both mentally and physically
to deal with an active shooter situation.
