Major L/E Paradigm Shift
Since Columbine L/E made a major shift in tactics in an active shooter response
Law enforcement has focused on neutralizing the shooter with first responding PD
Both approach's fails to get medical attention to victims soon enough for major bleeding

Mass Casualty Incident (MCI)
• Mass Casualty Incident Defined - A Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) can be defined as an incident that has produced more casualties than a customary response assignment can handle. Types of incidents that can produce mass casualties include:
• Multiple vehicle accidents• Building collapse

Criminal Mass Casualty Incidents (CMCI) “active shooter”
• 98% male • 98% carried out by a single attacker • Predominately commit suicide on site• 80% use rifle, shotgun• 75% bring multiple weapons• 98% occur during daytime• Offenders are preoccupied with obtaining a high body count before police arrive• They almost never take hostages and do not negotiate• 85% incident over in under 6 minutes• 2007 – 2012 majority of incidents occurred under 3 minutes• Average police response time from the first shot 9 to 12 minutes• More than 700 incidents in the past thirty years

Stats on LE Engagement
The Rapid Treatment Model of Active Shooter Response8
• 93% of incidents were over prior to the first responding asset, police or fire/EMS, arriving on scene.
• 7% of incidents police actually arrived in time to interrupt the shooting.

Percentage of Survivors
• 90% of deaths occurred prior to definitive care– 42% immediately– 26% within 5 minutes– 16% within 5 and 30 minutes– 8 10% within 30 minutes and 2 hours‐– Remainder survived between 2 and 6 hours during
prolonged extrication to care
• Only 10% of combat deaths occur after care initiated

• The greatest benefit will be achieved through a combined effort that puts the caregiver at the patient’s side within minutes of being wounded to maximize life saving– Agency expertise– Clearly defined roles– Familiarity – Simplicity – Unification
Cooperative effort

On April 2, 2013 the Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, in cooperation with the International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) and the International Chiefs of Police, convened a meeting to address, “Responding to Mass Casualty Shootings – Strengthening Fire/Law Enforcement/EMS Partnerships.”
Based on the proceedings of this meeting, there is a real and present threat and an obvious need for all organizations involved to work together when confronted with an armed individual who has either already killed and injured people or is threatening to do so.
The position statements are relevant to IAFF locals in fire departments that are changing response protocols or SOPs in an effort to embrace a more assertive approach to rendering life-saving care and rescuing viable victims in areas considered to be "warm zones" (not fully secured) during such an event.
IAFF Supports Concept

IACP position
“First responders must prepare for, protect against, and respond to these threats collectively because not planning for the event will find responders fighting them together unprepared.” The Police Chief, July 2013A Paradigm Shift for First Responders: Preparing the Emergency Response Community for Hybrid Targeted Violence, Frazzano and Snyder,

• Traditional Methods– Stage away from incident– Waiting for “all clear”
• Forms of Tactical Medicine– TEMS, TCCC, SWAT Medic– Not fast enough, complicated
• “The fate of the injured often lies in the hands of the one who provides the first care to the casualty” –Arlington VA Fire
Current fire/EMS response

Unified Command
• Commanders from various jurisdictions or organizations operating together to form a single command structure.
• The Incident Commanders within the Unified Command make joint decisions and speak as one voice. Any differences are worked out within the Unified Command.
• Physical link up (face to face)(does not require formal “command post”)

Best utilization of resources
• Large response by Law Enforcement– Trained to work in the tactical environment
• Use proven principles– Economy of force– Resource driven
• Establish Forward Observation Base (FOB)– ICS Operations Officer
• LE requires little training for victim rescue– Drags and Carries easy to learn– Tourniquets being taught already

• Once RTF operational, Fire/EMS Command will establish: – RTF re-supply near point of entry – External/Internal casualty collection
point – Dedicate non-RTF assets to assist in
transfer of patients from RTF assets for external evacuation

RTF Goal
• Stabilize as many victims as possible using TCCC principles in the WARM Zone– Will penetrate into building as far as
possible until they run out of accessible victims or out of supplies
– “Stabilize, position, and move on”– Once out of supplies or victims, move
victims to CCP–
