Law enforcement drills recently showed officers and area teachers what it might be like if a shooter entered a school.
On Aug. 21, Moody County sheriff deputies, Flandreau police officers and Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe officers practiced responding to the Flandreau high school with guns that looked real but were instead air soft guns, and Moody County ambulance workers helped tend to those who acted the parts of victims. Before the drill took place at 9 a.m., ambulance personnel taught staff methods on how to stop bleeding in potential victims. The training and drill lasted about three hours.
A drill also was conducted previously at the Colman-Egan School.
