ACTIVE SHOOTER TRAINING AT BCMS
A full-scale Active Shooter Exercise was held
March 9, 2019, at the bexar County Medical Society
(bCMS) headquarters. The training was put on by
the bexar County Office of the Constable Precinct
2 at the request of the bCMS Emergency Prepared-
ness Committee and the Alamo Area Medical Re-
serve Corp (MRC). Fifty-five people from all over
San Antonio were in attendance to take the training
which included bCMS physician members, and rep-
resentatives from Health Careers High School,
Methodist Healthcare Ministries, Aspect Wealth
Management and others.
Our thanks to Captain Marc Garcia, who in-
structed the training and oversaw the exercise, Con-
stable Michelle barrientes vela and her excellent
team of officers that made the Active Shooter ex-
ercise so realistic. Our thanks also goes out to Sha-
vano Park Police, Fire and EMS for their
cooperation with the event.
