LA VISTA, Neb. (AP) — La Vista has adopted a policy for responding to active-shooter scenarios in city buildings.

The policy approved by City Council March 1 outlines ways to protect employees, officials and citizens when someone is firing a gun on city property.

The policy says employees should evacuate, hide or fight. The policy offers tips for each option, such as improvising weapons, keeping one’s hands visible while leaving a building, picking a hiding spot that is easy to escape from and throwing things.

There are also guidelines for communicating with news organizations and employees following a shooting incident.

The city will also offer employee training for such scenarios.
