‘Nothing we haven’t done to prepare’: SAPD Chief discusses mass shooting readiness

–

“There’s nothing that we haven’t done in terms of training, in terms of collaboration, to better our response. We have the capability and the capacity to respond to any threat, anywhere in the city: schools, businesses, hospitals, wherever it may be.” His briefing was the result of a 2023 council consideration request by Councilman Manny Pelaez , who is running for mayor next year. Pelaez asked the city to “adopt and meaningfully fund an evidence-based and expert-guided mass shooting prevention and response plan for local schools.”

McManus said he was not sure what change SAPD could make to its plans, based on the CCR. However, Pelaez’s request also called for addressing “root causes.”
