On Wednesday evening, July 6, 2016, after more than 3 years of planning, CFARS hosted the initial roll-out training for the new Hunterdon County "Rescue Task Force" (RTF) response to an active shooter incident training. The RTF program, which has been slowly been coming into New Jersey from other parts of the Country, was organized as part of the Hunterdon County Prosecutor's Office Special Operations Unit. It teaches first responders, from Police, Fire and EMS, how to work together to help minimize deaths after an event like we recently saw.
With the unfortunate recent events that occurred in Orlando Florida, it reminds the members of CFARS with what we may, at some point, be called into help with a very tragic event, with injuries that need immediate attention.
