The Hawaii Police Department will conduct an “active shooter” presentation for the public 6-7:30 p.m. Wednesday (Aug. 3) at Aunty Sally Kaleohano’s Luau Hale, 799 Piilani St., in Hilo.
The presentation is designed to help individuals increase their survivability should they encounter an active shooter or other type of active violent incident. Police will provide information about previous incidents of mass violence, recent events, best practices for those caught in such situations, law enforcement’s response and how to work together as a community toward prevention. They also will provide additional resources for participants so they can continue their education on this topic, followed by a question-and answer segment.
Anyone unable to attend can obtain “active shooter” information by viewing the “Active Shooter/Violence Awareness” page on the Police Department’s website at hawaiipolice.com under the “services” tab.
