First responders from around the region gathered at Berks Catholic High School in Reading to train for active shooter situations.


Police and EMTs had to work together to respond to a hypothetical shooting Monday.


About 30 students and the principal played the role of the victims.


Police learned how to respond and how to help EMTs get to the victims as fast as possible.


"Each one of us is trained specifically to address what we know in our specialty, but it's learning what the other individuals have and what the other individuals expect that lets us work together as a team," said Duane Siberski, Reading Hospital.


Officials said being able to train in a school really helps the first responders.
