Hypothetical Mass Casualty Attack Response
Helps ID Processes, Issues That Need Addressing

Nearly 100 personnel from Kerr County emergency agencies – ranging from such areas as law enforcement, fire suppression, emergency medical and mental health to public information, school districts, charitable organizations and more – were on hand Wednesday, Feb. 8, to participate in a mass casualty workshop.

Some 90 leaders and employees took part in the event in the Happy State Bank Expo Hall of the Hill Country Youth Event Center. They joined to work through a hypothetical mass shooting attack at a local school and then brainstormed collectively to identify the steps of proper response and how those steps could be strengthened.
