Nashville responded 100% by the book. Make entry with a team of 4 and sweep systematically each room, bypassing locked doors without keys. Keep pushing in this method until you find the suspect. If you start hearing gunshots, begin to rush past ALL rooms until you engage. Any injured or deceased should be noted on radio but otherwise passed over as your job is to eliminate the threat so EMS can get in to do their job.

These officers were brave and are the example of what our officers should look like every day across the country. Yes, there will always be fear. You don't get to not do your job because you are afraid though.
