Santa Ana College Holds “Active Shooter” Emergency Preparedness Drill

8/12/2014
Page Content
August 15th Drill Features Santa Ana Police Department and Orange County Fire Authority

(Santa Ana, CA)—On Friday, August 15, Santa Ana College will host an emergency preparedness drill focusing on an “active shooter” scenario. The emergency training exercise is slated to get underway at 9:00 a.m. and run until 6:00 p.m. It will include first responders from the Santa Ana Police Department, the Orange County Fire Authority, and the Santa Ana College Safety and Security Department.

“The purpose of this drill is to bring the public safety agencies together that would respond if there ever were an emergency of this nature on the Santa Ana College campus,” said Erlinda J. Martinez, Ed.D., president of Santa Ana College. “The goal of the exercise is to familiarize and assess college personnel, police and fire rescue personnel with crisis management on the Santa Ana College campus. Training such as this better prepares all agencies involved.”

The drill will include four separate training exercises on the Santa Ana College campus, located at 1530 W. 17th St. in Santa Ana. The first exercise will involve the entire campus in an evacuation drill. The remaining three exercises will be confined to the “C” (Fine Arts/Art Gallery) Building and the east end of campus.

The drill will feature actors playing the role of victims, but no real firearms or live ammunition will be used. Since the drill is scheduled after summer semester has ended, but before fall semester begins, there will be no impact to classes. However, there will be an increase of law enforcement and fire personnel on campus from approximately 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and loud noises may be heard from the vicinity of the drill area. In addition, some of the campus walkways and paths of travel may be blocked off for safety purposes during the training. The public is asked to follow directions of public safety personnel and signage for the duration of the drill.
