The Michigan synagogue that an armed man rammed his vehicle into on Thursday had undergone an active-shooter exercise with the FBI just six weeks ago.
FBI Detroit posted on X about agents leading an “Active Shooter Attack Prevention and Preparedness” (ASAPP) training for the clergy and staff of Temple Israel in West Bloomfield near Detroit on January 30.
In the post, the FBI said the course “combines lessons learned from years of research and employs scenario-based exercises to help participants practice the decision-making process of the Run, Hide, Fight principles and take necessary actions for survival.”
The suspect, identified as Ayman Mohamad Ghazali, was fatally shot by security officers after driving through a hallway at Temple Israel in a vehicle that then caught fire, authorities said.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
