Study Notes

Active Shooter Tactical Guidelines

  • Active Assailant incidents require rapid, coordinated responses to minimize injury and loss of life.
  • The Tulsa Police and Fire Departments prioritize safe apprehension while protecting victims, officers, and suspects.
  • Activation occurs upon multiple calls to Public Safety Communications (PSC) from a location indicating an active assailant.
  • Types of incidents include armed suspects, hostage situations, and critical emergencies in target-rich environments (e.g., schools, malls).

Communication Protocols

  • PSC initiates Active Assailant protocols and automatically alerts specialized teams (Bomb Squad, Incident Management Team, Special Operations Team, Public Information Officer).
  • The main radio frequency is designated as "Tactical Frequency" until on-scene personnel advise otherwise, ensuring uninterrupted communication with minimal radio changes required.
  • Additional tactical frequencies may be dedicated as needed.

First Responding Officers/Contact Team

  • First responders assume the role of Incident Commander, making quick assessments and communicating vital information to manage the situation.
  • Officers should not act independently but instead control and contain until specialized teams arrive.
  • Officers are authorized to take urgent action to save lives if imminent danger is present.
  • Command is passed to another officer when immediate actions are deemed necessary, with specific identification and route communicated via radio.

Incident Commander (IC) Responsibilities

  • The second arriving law enforcement personnel establishes Command Post (CP) and Unified Command (UC) for the incident.
  • The IC must identify themselves and their location to ensure effective coordination among all responders.
  • If command is unclaimed, PSC prompts for the identity of the person taking command.

Unified Command Structure

  • Unified Command includes Tulsa Police Department (TPD), Tulsa Fire Department (TFD), and Emergency Medical Services Authority (EMSA).
  • The IC assigns personnel to monitor various frequencies:
    • Interior Tactical Frequency for Contact Team.
    • Interior frequency for Search Team communications.
    • Exterior frequency for operations outside the structure.

Search Team Composition

  • The Search Team (ST) is led by a Team Leader (STL) to coordinate with the Contact Team.
  • The Assistant Team Leader (ASTL) manages the Interior frequency for updates on occupant conditions and potential threats.
  • A Breaching Officer may be designated for entry, equipped with various tools, while exercising caution to avoid harm to civilians within the structure.
