Since most active shooter incidents are over before law enforcement arrives on the scene, you have to respond better and faster. As a business owner, manager, or employee, the ability to run, hide, or fight is paramount to saving lives, including your own.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, in 2021 there have been more than 50 mass shootings thus far in the United States. Listen to Tim’s take on why this is happening with his interview with Ray Horner of WAKR<\/a><\/p>\n An active shooter actively engages in killing or attempting to kill people in a confined space or other populated areas. In most cases, active shooters use firearms, and there is no pattern or method to their selection of victims. They may be motivated by revenge, anger, or ideology.<\/p>\n Once the attack begins, the shooter moves throughout the building or area until stopped by law enforcement, suicide, or other intervention.<\/p>\n Preparedness and awareness are the keys to helping protect your employees, your customers, and yourselves.<\/p>\n Remember, preparation is a critical factor in preventing an active shooter<\/a> or other violent situation.<\/p>\nProfile of an Active Shooter<\/h2>\n
