As incidents of extreme violence increase, threats continue to expand beyond guns to include active incidents involving knives, bombs and even vehicles. In an environment where a vehicle could be used as a weapon, such as parking lots, open markets, or crowded city streets, situational awareness and rapid response are key. If you notice a vehicle driving erratically or too fast for the environment, will you know how to respond? These threats are seen in all sectors of society and include schools, restaurants, movie theaters, concert halls and houses of worship. This session will highlight these evolving threats and demonstrate how to train individuals to prepare and respond if violence erupts.
