- Call 911 when you are safe.
HIDE:
- If you can’t get away safely, find a place to hide.
- Stay quiet and get out of shooters view.
- Lock and block doors, close blinds, and turn off the lights.
- Hide separately- not in groups.
- Try to communicate with police silently, do not be loud.
- Stay in place until law enforcement gives you all clear.
FIGHT:
- Defend yourself.
- Commit to your actions and act aggressively to stop the shooter.
- Ambush the shooter with makeshift weapons such as scissors, books, fire extinguishers, or chairs.
