The Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station is set to take part in active shooter training at Valencia High School on Monday.
On Monday, the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station, with the help of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) Tactics and Survival unit, LASD Special Enforcement Bureau, and the Los Angeles County Fire Department, is scheduled to take part in active shooter training at Valencia High School.
“Active shooter drills and continued training allow personnel to sharpen skills necessary to quickly neutralize a threat and allow for quicker medical response. We will update the community once training has completed,” said Deputy Natalie Arriaga, spokesperson for the SCV Station.
Training is planned to be held from 7 a.m.-12 p.m., in which deputies will participate in various active shooter scenarios with the use of simulation rounds.
School is not in session on Monday due to Fall Break, and only designated personnel will be allowed on campus, LASD officials said.
Members of the public are asked to please avoid the area.
