- The DPS and MPD recently conducted a full scale "Active Shooter" exercise to test and evaluate the tactics and strategies of their police officers in response to an armed incident on campus. This latest exercise was also designed to evaluate the collaborative efforts of both agencies in a joint effort designed to save lives on a university campus.
