A 9-1-1 call was placed at 08:34am. The caller was a female worker at the Pacific Warehouse, downtown. She described a disgruntled employee who had been fired the week before, walking in to the warehouse with a handgun. He shot the gun one time in the air and then held several people at gunpoint, including the caller, demanding that his supervisor show his face.

Your tactical response team should have a minimum of 4 armed members; the team leader who formulates and implements the force-on-force plan, assisting team leader who communicates with assisting personnel (if any), cover/rear guard unit members, and additional support personnel is ideal. Because of the siza and nature of this scenario, all 12 TRT members are being made available to use. The goal of the TRT and assisting personnel is to work as a team and eliminate the threat immediately.
