 Three nurses on the second floor of the hospital they report they were told that there's an active shooter situation on the fifth floor they report here in subsequently five rapid shots when officers got on scene making assumptions getting that information assessments we went into officers first officers arriving on scene went into our active shooter protocol we formed a perimeter but immediately because our main concern obviously with this type of situation is the safety of the public the safety of the patients in the hospital the safety of the staff so we want to address that situation if that is an active shooter which turns out it probably wasn't but we want to address that situation and bring that to closure as soon as possible so we put contact teams in the building start a search of the hospital where we have the information the best information we think that individual might may be at that point in time obey this obviously this case is still an investigation we did have some video footage it's not real good footage possibility that that suspect recovered that weapon maybe in an alley or something was carrying that scene pumping the weapon so it doesn't look at this point in time like you ever made it into the hospital probably just walked by the hospital but was carrying something that could have been a pellet gun a BB gun really can't tell from the video still under investigation we're still trying to locate that individual no evidence of any shots on the fifth floor anywhere in the hospital that was planned go ahead we didn't find any shell case there's no evidence at the scene inside the hospital we weren't able to recover any evidence inside we have we have some video surveillance yes some grainy footage of him correct but before we got the call I can't really comment on when Rose got that information how long they before they dispatched whether they went into a lockdown prior to us leaving calling the police so I couldn't really comment on that sounds like it could have been a delay for the time we first got the call right absolutely but that's that's a safe way to do things we're comfortable our responsibility is to take care of that situation so based on the information we had at that time it was essential that we get officers in there and make sure that hospital is safe and clear there's no victims in there we don't know if he did go in there maybe was in maybe came out maybe there's a victim in that hospital we have to find that individual we're still looking for you know if district 2 has that investigation sure at some point they'll make that determination whether to release that video or not it's difficult right well you know I said we train at this active shooter scenario we train a large large situations like this all officers are prepared to form perimeters officers are prepared to form contact teams officers are prepared to form rescue task forces to get in there to rescue individuals to stop the situation from progressing so it's it's nothing that's that we do train at so it's just it's a long takes about took about four hours to clear that hospital we had adequate officers let's see I don't like to give up numbers obviously but there was adequate officers responding absolutely we have to you have to continue you get information you make assessments based on the information you have at that time it has to change evolve again different information from different people while locations where they are where they're last seen it changes so we're always adjusting to that as accurate as it can be like I said previously the video is it's not a very good video so it does it gives a basic description a basic outline of an individual can't say definitively what that was it looks like there was something in his hand it's just not very good video no no you can't carry we'll be able to well I think the staff up at DeRose Hospital was observant they saw something suspicious they reported to the police we responded in kind because we're concerned about the safety of people there appears possibly now that this guy was walking down the alley maybe have recovered that weapon or whatever it is from a dumpster or something and just continued on by the hospital and was observed doing that that's what we got there was nurses on the second floor that heard they were told that there's an active shooter on the fifth floor subsequently they heard five pops it's a possibility that the shut down the lock down of the doors cause that noise I imagine the campus did I think came from internally from Rose Hospital I can't confirm that didn't come from the police department very limited that we take that into consideration we had the initial call from the campus but after that call we didn't have really any more subsequent calls of shots fired or any are seen anybody in the area right I think there's some Texans also from people inside no I believe he didn't have when we first saw him on video he didn't have a weapon it looks like they saw him go down the alley possibly he pulled was going through dumpsters might have pulled that out of a dumpster and continued on with it no it's never all for nothing that's what we do that's we do every time that's our job we do it we want to do it of course of course one of the hospital buildings a big campus was the founders building yes well some investigation just briefly an individual was seen carrying a gun crossing the street cross crossing the street by the parking garage by founders two nurses also saw someone carrying a rifle several minutes later three nurses on the second floor were told that there's an active shooter situation on the fifth floor they subsequently hear five what they feel is five gunshots that's what started the whole thing going right there they did they thought they did it could have been possibly the lockdown procedure causing those noise we don't we're not sure yet no shell case you know evidence of any shots fired on the campus well we got we got to make sure we got to be there on the side of caution we don't know what we have in there we're based on the information we have we see two two different spottings of someone with the rifle nurses actually ear witnesses to possibly shots going off we have to act on that information it's it's not real good video it's being looked at right now they're following up leads on that right now just a grainy individual looks like he's carrying a bag possibly some sort of weapon it's hard to tell from the video in his right hand possibility had we went back found some video footage of him with without carrying that weapon he goes through an alley he's possibly going through dumpsters later they see him with with that possible weapon so maybe he was dumpster diving maybe grab that weapon out of it appears based on individual witness statements that he was carrying something that looked appeared to be a rifle I think people people are more educated they're more conscientious see something say something or taking care of each other is what I think is happening and our response is it's just for that so I think it's good absolutely absolutely probably see something say something thank you sir
