BREAKING: Confirmed active shooter at Sparkman Center on @Redstone_AL no details to report yet. Crews enroute.

A possible emergency situation is underway at Redstone Arsenal.

A spokesman for Redstone says it could be a possible active shooter. All gates are closed at this time.

The Marshall Space Flight Center sent an alert at 10:00a.m. Tuesday warning that a "situation exists near the Sparkman Center, RSA bldg. 5301."

The message asked for people to avoid the area.

I am current working on Redstone Arsenal. What's crazy is there was supposed to be an active shooter drill this week, and now it appears that one is actually happening, so a lot of people think it's a drill when it's actually not.

Maybe this is the drill and the media is misunderstanding and reporting it?

As history has shown us, this is not a coincidence.

Why are people shocked by this phrase? It's actually a directive handed down by Homeland and the FBI.

The proper response.

That was what was sent out to everyone at my hospital when we had a "possible shooter".

Absolutely. Cops and military can't save your arse most of the time.

No, they have to state it's a drill when they send out alerts. But not everyone realizes that I guess. But they just announced over the intercom in my building (not the same building as the supposed shooter) that the drill was scheduled to be tomorrow.
