What to do when you fear a mass shooter, according to security experts:
Prior to two back-to-back mass deadly shootings, a loud sound in New York City’s busy Times Square may not have caused public panic. But after the shootings in El Paso and Dayton, the sound of motorcycles backfiring caused public panic and a stampede.
"People are scared but also people just don't seem confident that the government is doing enough to protect them," Cohen said. Even though the stampede in Times Square resulted in several minor injuries after the motorcycles backfired, officials said that the public reacted"correctly" to a perceived threat.
Waters was referring to the government-backed motto that urges people to"run, hide, fight" when facing an active-shooter event. He likened these mental run-throughs to all of the time that police officers spend practicing at shooting ranges or running through drills. In situations like the one in Times Square, Cohen agreed with Waters that if people are running, you too should run, but keep your own situation in mind."If there's a large crowd running in a certain direction, if you can't keep up with that crowd you want to get out of the way of the crowd," he said.
