The Columbia Police Department announced in a social media post that it is using unoccupied school buildings for active-shooter response training this week while students are on spring break.
More than 40 officers completed their training this week and more sessions will be held throughout the year, the post says.
“The training was co-developed by multiple Boone County law enforcement agencies, including the University of Missouri Police Department, the Boone County Sheriff’s Office and the Columbia Police, and is being taught by instructors from each of those agencies,” the post says.
