Although the odds of being in an active shooter event are low, the sudden, catastrophic nature of these types of attacks require that individuals consider the possibility in advance.

What would you do if...?

How would you respond when...?

Are you prepared should you find yourself confronted by an armed gunman?

The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department has prepared the listed website and video, Surviving an Active Shooter, to help people answer these questions and to provide tips and resources for responding to an critical incident of this nature.

Much like being prepared for an earthquake or a fire, it is critical that you plan for responding to an active shooter situation before you find yourself in one.

We encourage our community to watch this video and share it, along with the other information presented on the website, with friends and family.
