Will Hockey Pucks Thwart A Active Shooter??
Excerpt From Article:
The Auburn Hills university began equipping its faculty and some students with hockey pucks this month as a “last resort” precaution to throw at any active shooters on campus, officials say.
Oakland University Police Chief Mark Gordon said the idea emerged during a training session he was giving earlier this year on surviving an active shooter situation.
Gordon, a former youth hockey coach, said since the university has an ordinance against weapons, one attendee asked what staff and students could bring to prepare themselves for a fight. He recalled once being struck in the head with a puck and said it “caused a fair amount of damage to me.”
“It was not a well-thought-out strategy,” Gordon told reporters during a telephone interview Tuesday evening. “It was a spur-of-the-moment-thing that had merit to it and kind of caught on.”
