Cary-Grove plans "code red" drill with gun blanks
CARY – Parents at Cary-Grove High School say that firing gun blanks in an active shooter drill is going too far.
The high school planned a "Code Red" lockdown drill for 9 a.m. Wednesday.
School officials, who are working with Cary Police for the simulation, said they plan to use gun blanks "so that [students] might be able to recognize the sound and react quickly should an active gunman situation occur," a message on the high school's website read.
