Police respond as fast as they can to an active shooters incident. But numbers tell the story:
- Median police response time to an active shooter: 3 minutes
- Percentage of active shooter calls that are over before police even arrive: 66%
- Majority of active shooters strike between 8am-4pm
- 61 active shooter incidents took place in the US in 2021, a 52.5% increase from 2020
YOU can make the difference in your safety and the safety of others in that first three (3) minutes. Learn the principles of what to do if an active shooter incident happens and increase your chance of survival by knowing:
Avoid
Deny
Defend
Also referred to as “Run, Hide, Fight”.
Officers will present active shooter case studies that highlight strategies victims used and the ultimate outcomes of their choices. These will also help participants understand Avoid, Deny, Defend in deeper detail.
