'[We want you to] just to be able to think 'I know what that is and I'm going to do this,'' retired Johnson County Sheriff's Deputy John O'Rourke, who led the training, said.
JOHNSON COUNTY — Four months ago, a man walked into the food court at Greenwood Park Mall and killed 3 people.
O'Rourke says there are three steps or options people have in what he calls an active killer situation, keeping in mind the perpetrator may use a gun but could use a number of things for a weapon, including a vehicle. O'Rourke says it is all about getting past the doubt in people's minds that this situation is happening. He says the training reminds people this can happen anywhere and you need to take action to survive.
They made health a priority after two of their children underwent serious medical complications, and they want to help people in the community do the same. "The events that happened about 4 months ago really highlight the idea that no community is really immune," said David.
