Just two weeks shy of graduating from their 24-week academy, Tucson Police recruits took on ‘Active Killer’ training inside an empty hospital building.
TUCSON, Ariz. — Just two weeks shy of graduating from their 24-week academy, Tucson Police recruits from the '23-1 class took on ‘Active Killer’ training inside an empty hospital building.
“We put on a two-day, ‘ALERRT’ Level One Active Shooter Response course,” said Sgt. Jacob Smith. “Day Two is the scenario-based training.” “It’s a lot going through your head,” recruit Arlene Olguin told KGUN. “You have a gunman, you have people that are potentially losing their lives. So you want to get in there as soon as you can and address the problem.”“So now when we get to this situation, we’re able to kinda just think,” he explained. “And all the movements and the shooting and all that stuff’s kinda muscle memory by now. So you really just think about the concepts and principles they taught us.
In 2020, TPD added more scenarios to their training. Smith calls this the ‘ALERRT’ course the national standard.
