ACTIVE SHOOTER / VIOLENT ATTACKER PREPAREDNESS
RUN
If you can safely evacuate yourself, do so quickly. Attempt to help others, but do not let them slow you down. Once you are in a safe location, call tupd (504-865-5911).
HIDE
If you are unable to evacuate, then lock doors, barricade entryways, and
Seek cover. Silence cell phones and turn off all lights.
FIGHT
As a last resort, if you are unable to run or hide, fight for your life. Use anything to distract and incapacitate the shooter/attacker.
The following video depicts a simulated active shooter scenario with actors. Please watch with discretion.
