MPD to hold active shooter survival training for public
posted
MADISON, Wis. – The Madison Police Department is offering a training designed to save lives in an active shooter situation.
Seats are still available for the Civilian Response to Active Shooter Events (CRASE) training on April 10.
Officers will present active shooter cases and highlight the strategies victims used and the ultimate outcome of their choices. Trainers will also use realistic equipment to give people a hands-on experience and model a potential situation that could happen.
On average, it takes police three minutes to respond to an active shooter event. About two-thirds of these incidents are over by the time police arrive to the scene.
The course principles can be applied at businesses, schools, places of worship, clinics or anywhere people gather.
Training Details
Thursday, April 10
1-4 p.m.
MPD Training Center, 5702 Femrite Dr.
