Blue Earth County Sheriff’s Office Hosts Active Violence/Active Shooter Training for Area First Responders
On July 16th the Blue Earth County Sheriff’s Office hosted an Active Violence/Active Shooter training event for area first responders at the St. Clair School.
The event was attended by 102 participants from 16 different law enforcement agencies and fire departments from Blue Earth, Nicollet, and Le Sueur counties.
The training focused on discipline-specific skills and cooperation among responders to enhance operational effectiveness and save lives when responding to incidents of active violence in our area.
The Active Violence/Active Shooter concept began in 2012 as a regional initiative with an onsite training component at various locations throughout the region on a regular basis.
