North Carolina Campus Shooting Drill 'Real as it Gets'

January 8th, 2008 (See http://www.officer.com/online/article.jsp?siteSection=1&id=39649 for the complete article)


The training exercise was conducted at UNC-Greensboro. It was set up to be as real as possible.

Shots rang out, a hooded gunman was seen and another gunman took hostages.

More than 120 law enforcement officers and 85 role-players took part in a full-scale active shooter exercise.

The exercise, which had been planned before the mass shooting at Virginia Tech, was finally put into effect. The exercise was conducted while the students were on a holiday break.


Soap Box Ravings congratulates the University of North Carolina for their use of this type of training exercise. This is exactly the type of training that should be conducted in various schools, shopping malls, airports, churches and anywhere else large groups of people are found. OUTSTANDING
