Gunfire inside a building doesn’t sound like gunfire at the shooting range. The faster you or your children can recognize the sounds of gunfire, the better your chances for escape will be. It is important to quickly be able to distinguish gunfire from other less lethal sounds. Victims trapped inside the Virginia Tech classroom building during that school shooting believed they were hearing construction noises, not gunshots. In the Beslan School massacre, people thought the initial shots were popping balloons. The same was true when two students began shooting inside Columbine High School. In the Oikos California college shooting last April (where 10 people were shot), victims reported thinking that the gun shots were fireworks. ![]()
