Drexel Heights Fire District will hold an active shooter drill over the span of several days this week.

Fire crews first took part in classes taught by Integrated Community Solutions to Active Violence Events, or IC SAVE.

During the last six weeks, they learned skills like bleeding control and violence awareness.

Their training will be put into action at Hohokam Middle School on August 22, 23, and 28.

The school will be closed while the drills are happening.
