GOSHEN – The Orange County
Sheriff’s Office is offering free programs in site security, staff
education and public presentations for schools, government offices and
local businesses.
The announcement came one day after a gunman shot and killed 26 people
and wounded another 20 while they were worshipping at a Sutherland Springs,
Texas church.
The Orange County programs are customized to address threats while being
adaptable enough to still be useful to a wide variety of locations.
Sheriff’s officials said active shooter events occur at a moment’s
notice and the programs offered locally will aid in mitigating the aggressor’s
actions to create an outcome that limits the number of victims.
Site assessment will assist staff in recognizing particular vulnerabilities
and provide analysis to mitigate threats to those areas, officials said.
Programs in active shoot, Operation Archangel and site security analysis
can be scheduled by contacting the sheriff’s office at 845-291-7900
or e-mailing Assistant Undersheriff Anthony Weed at aweed@orangecountygov.com
