Action

IN THE RARE EVENT OF

a firearms or weapons attack

RUN HIDE TELL

RUN to a place of safety. This is a far better option than

to surrender or negotiate. If there's nowhere to go, then…

HIDE It's better to hide than to confront. Remember to

turn your phone to silent and turn off vibrate. Barricade

yourself in if you can. Then finally and only when it is safe

to do so…

TELL the police by calling 999.
