If you are in the area of a Mass Killer what should you do after the killing has stopped? Here are some bullet points to think about:

Do you have people with you?

• Evac them away from the shooter and any other crowds
• Leave with them unless:
  • You are involved, and/or
  • You plan to help because you see a need and have the training to fill it:
    • Do you have life saving skill?
    • Can you triage a scene?
    • Do you know enough to get others out and/or emergency personnel in?
    • Hunting time is probably over… but you might have to.

If you are involved as a fighter:

• Keep other away from the killer
• Keep others away from the killer’s weapon(s)
  • Take it and/or use it
  • Hide it / render it inert
  • Stand on it
  • Leave it alone
• Bomb?
• Hostages

Create Distance

• More distance is more better
• As far as you can while still isolating the shooter
• Is he playing possum?
• What if he is a bomb/has a bomb?

Take Cover

• Bombs
• Position of advantage
• From everythign

Watch you six

• Do you need the gun in your hand?
• Cops are coming
• Other bad guys could be in the area?
• Other good guys could be hunting

Evacuate others away from the shooter and triage

• If you can walk, go that way
• Look around for anyone you can help, take them with you
• You are going to take command of the situation until somone else gets there

When the police arrive

• You are the victim
• Do what they tell you to
• No aggressive movements
• It might hurt
• If told to evacutate, go but don’t go far
• talk in simple terms, no specifics and no specific questions answered.

Stay Safe,
