Violent Incident

A threat of violence is the expression of the intent to inflict pain, injury, or other harm.

In the event of a violent incident:

  1. If imminent, CALL SECURITY (extension 13).
  2. Tell the location and describe the threat. In weapons or hostage situations, dial X13 and inform Security Services of the situation.
  3. Stay on the phone unless the Security dispatcher directs you otherwise and it is safe to do so.
