Neosho Community College will host a training exercise coordinated by the Neosho County Emergency Management, Chanute Police and Fire Department, as well as other area law enforcement, healthcare and emergency response agencies.
This exercise will simulate an active shooter on the NCCC Chanute campus and emergency response to that event at 10 a.m. on Jan. 7.
There will be minimal students and staff on campus during this time and the entire campus, parking lots and adjacent streets may be impacted. This exercise will test the effectiveness of emergency and crisis response plans.
There will be no live ammunition on campus, however, blanks may be used to simulate the shooter scenario. No visitors will be allowed on campus during the exercise and everyone on campus must remain inside the buildings. This exercise is expected to be done within three to four hours.
Any questions will be answered by emailing or contacting bsmith@neosho.edu or calling 620-431-2820 ext. 621.
