lutheran. we mentioned earlier, more than 20 pepperdine students were in the bar and moorpark college students were there. back to james gagliano. our cnn analyst. how has police responded to mass shooti shootings at this bar which is similar to pulse nightclub? if you go back to august of 1966 and the famous texas clock tower shooting. that is the first mass shooting with three or more victims. very, very difficult. again, to your point, dave, about orlando, the police were criticized because after the initial shooting, the gunman holed himself up. he said he had explosive devices and wired the doors. police in abundance of caution did a surround and containment. in issues like this, it is
corner. the interesting thing about this shooting pulling the fire alarm, clearly that was meant to not only to get people out and group together and maybe kill as many people as possible. it is a way to over come the active shooter training if everybody is supposed to hide in a classroom if they hear a fire alarm. they will be tempted to go out. that s right. james is right. you look at this one of the first questions is what happened in this particular instance, how to you put it in context and sort of try to find lessons learned. so can you get inside somebody s head to determine who s going to conduct an act like this? if you can t do that can you determine how to secure the perimeter of tens of thousands of grade schools and high schools across america to prevent this from happening. if you can t secure that perimeter, what happens when someone breeches and gets inside and starts shooting. you have somebody who says i m
columbine. get to the shooter as quickly as possible. they what they did here. the reason of that, my understanding the fbi has done kpausive reviews of every active shooter situation since columbine. and learned that most of the fatalities take place in the first six minutes. they are usually very short. if you re waiting to set up a perimeter and going room to room, the deaths are all going to be done by the time you find that person. we go back further than 1999. august 1 of 1966 the university of texas clock tower shooting. most shootings app right away. two folks there was a campus police officer and a local deputy went up and confronted the gunman. that was the birth of the special weapons and tactic team. it s interesting. i have been in schools and watched their active shooter training. the teachers bring the students into the classroom and lock the door. and pull down a blind over the door, they huddle in a closet or
talking to the police outside the door. then being directed to another part of the hospital. there is so much fear and chaos. some parents just simply can t get enough information. they they don t believe the information and check hospitals on their own. that s what we saw unfold. panic, concern, trying to find answers and some just being whisked away in the hospital. it s a reminder what we re dealing with are children. and parents seeking answers. the impossible wait. parents often have to wait for hours until they find out the fate of their child. we want to show you we mentioned a short time ago the broward county sheriff department had tweeted out a request from the fbi to send in video to a a site the fbi set up. fbi.gov/parkland shooting. to submit information people have on the shooting.
year or the year before. that was confirmed by the sheriff. who said the suspect had been expelled for disciplinary reasons. there s poetsings by the person we think is the suspect. if they re all him, what happened today was completely telegraphed by the shooter himself. do we know anything about the persons family? didn t anybody who was close to him any family member weren t they aware of the postings? we are unclear of the family situation. that may have been a big problem in his life. we don t have that nailed down. we re trying to germ if in fact he had parents at the time of the shooting. we are looking into that, trying to track it down. it s all influx. again the postings as eluded to by the sheriff show a very dark individual. forecasting exactly what happened. specifically with the weapon.
