TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - One local business is preparing people on how to defend themselves against an active shooter situation.
Talon Range in Midway hosted a training session on Saturday to safely prepare civilians who are faced with the threat of an active shooter. The course is a total of 12 hours.
It includes a four hour classroom session on Friday night and a practice day at the range on Saturday.
This Saturday, participants learned disarming techniques and and drills that help develop accurate shooting skills.
The co-owner of Talon Range is expressing the urgency when it comes to being prepared for shootings.
"The 1st Amendment isn't going any where and the 2nd Amendment isn't going anywhere. As long as those two forces are there, we are going to have more of these things. So we need to be prepared," said Co-owner Charlie Strickland.
