Attacks on mass gatherings like the Route 91 concert, and conflicts between protestors or attacks on police during riots, strain public safety resources and put both officers and the public in danger.
Police tactics during such responses also place PDs under the harsh glare of the media spotlight and subject to after-action reviews.
Mass gatherings can be spontaneous or one-time protest events planned months ahead. They can be peaceful and planned – children form mass gatherings in schools five days a week – or subject to varying crowd size and demeanor as seen at music concerts.
Law enforcement agencies need multifaceted response strategies in place to address all of these scenarios, which have to be perfected through varied and ongoing training.
