Active Shooter – Run, Hide, Fight

How do you defend against an active shooter?

Run

• Know your surroundings – have escape route and plan in mind
• Run immediately - leave your belongings behind
• Evacuate regardless of whether others agree to follow
• Help others escape, if possible • Do not attempt to move injured people
• Prevent others from entering area where the active shooter may be
• Keep your hands visible
• Call 911 when you are safe

Hide

• If you can’t escape, hide in an area out of the shooter’s view
• Lock the door or block the entry to your hiding place
• Silence cell phone (including the vibrate mode) and remain quiet
• Take cover behind furniture or fixtures away from doors or windows

Fight

• Fight as a last resort and only when your life is in imminent danger
• Use items around you as weapons to fight
• Attempt to incapacitate the shooter
• Commit to your actions...your life depends on it
