(KNZA)--The Hiawatha City Commission, as well as City staff, will receive training should an active shooter situation develop.
According to a news release, the training will be conducted Thursday and Friday, and will be overseen by Hiawatha Police Captain Dennis Entrikin. The Alice training program will be utilized, which stands for Alert- Lockdown-Inform-Counter- Evacuate.
According to the release, the training comes complete with participation scenarios, along with a presentation.
Due to the training, Hiawatha City Hall will close at 12:30 Friday afternoon to allow commissioners, employees, and court personnel to attend and train in their own workplace environment.
