training

Through the partnership with the city of Shreveport, the 2.2 acre empty lot located at 1210 Milam Street will be transformed into a facility that will both improve the food and the lives of the ones who make it.

First responders in the Bossier area will be getting some training on Tuesday, Oct 25, as Bossier Parish hosts a Parish-wide disaster drill that will involve multiple locations and agencies.

The Bossier Sheriff's Office says 26 recruits from various agencies have started their 12-week training course to become Peace Officer Standards and Training (P.O.S.T.)-certified law enforcement officers.

If you heard shots being fired and saw several emergency vehicles at Mall St. Vincent this morning it was due to an active shooter training situation. Shreveport police, fire, and medical were all on the scene training for what needs to be done if an active shooter situation were to take place...

If you see a lot of emergency vehicles at Mall St. Vincent tomorrow, don't be alarmed. It's only a drill.

Don't be alarmed...it's only a drill. That's the message from the Bossier City Fire Department ahead of a planned fire drill this week.

The Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Office is offering state-required training for anyone wanting to obtain a concealed handgun permit, said Sheriff Steve Prator.

Well, that's a great question -- and I did some checking around.  I discovered the lights at Pines and Greenwood Roads were working just fine earlier this afternoon, so why would there be 12+ Shreveport Police Officers on the corner just looking out at the intersection, all the while one lone officer was directing traffic?  It was extremely puzzling to me, at least at first.
