Police: Officer fires live ammo in drill at Tennessee school
A police officer accidentally fired a live round during active shooter training this week at a Tennessee middle school, officials said.
No one was near the officer Thursday morning, and the bullet damaged a "minor little piece" of a cinderblock wall at Rockwood Middle School, Roane County Schools Superintendent Leah Watkins told WBIR-TV.
Police and the school system were working together to demonstrate what an active shooter situation sounds like. In the drill, school employees are locked in a classroom with the police chief while an officer fires blank rounds in the hallway.
