Approximately 100 emergency responders in the northwestern suburbs took part in an active shooter drill Tuesday afternoon, training for the worst-case scenario at the now vacant Trinity Community Center in Roselle.
“We’re using what we call force on force, which in layman’s terms, is paintball, and that is as close as you can get to the real thing,” he said. “Many of the victims here have what we call moulage, which is paint and things like that all done up as if they were injured.” “The more real you can make it, the more prepared you feel in the field,” Roselle firefighter and paramedic Tim Ohlson.
The group of paramedic students from Northwest Community Hospital role played victims. Roselle officials said they received a grant from the federal government to cover the cost of the training.
