Law enforcement and first responders will be participating in Active Shooter Hostile Emergency Response training, hosted by the Sedona Fire District. More than 70 attendees will participate in the training, which will be held at Sedona Fire District Station 1 at 2860 Southwest Drive in West Sedona and the vacant Big Park Community School, at 25 W. Saddlehorn Road, in the Village of Oak Creek. According to SFD, “this training is for first responders who may be called upon to deal with these types of incidents.” “No one likes to consider the possibility that these events could potentially occur in our communities,” SFD Training Officer Michael Duran stated in a press release. “But we must prepare for them, nonetheless.” Exercises such as this offer fire and police units the opportunity to train together prior to an event, the press release stated.
