Lone Wolf Attack

Yellow police tape on crime scene after school shooting

Considering the recent tragic events, John Cutter Investigations, Inc., (JCI) cannot stress enough, the importance of taking precautions when outside the safety of your home. Continuously, America is witnessing horrific attacks on "soft targets": schools, houses of worship, retail locations, and movie theaters, have all become potential targets for the emotionally disturbed individual looking to instill fear as the new normal in a free society. While no level of security is 100% fail proof, and most security measures are cost-prohibitive, there are simple measures each individual can take in order to prevent becoming another victim of this rash of senseless violence.

  • Be aware of your surroundings, take notice of exits upon entering any locations you are not already familiar with.

  • Stay off of your cell phone, when walking through any public area, keep your phone in your pocket, remove all headphones.

  • Make sure your cell phone is sufficiently charged in case of emergency, and always call 911 after taking a safe position away from immediate danger.

  • Take notice of anything or anyone that does not look right: a man wearing a heavy coat in warm weather, a door propped open in a discreet manner. If you notice something, alert someone in a position of authority such as a store manager, security, or a police officer.

  • Explain the above precautions to children, keep children close, and don't allow children younger than ten years old to wander off on their own.

All of the above tips are only a fraction of the precautions each of us can take in order to minimize our own risk.
