SINGAPORE - A crowd of Republic Polytechnic students were dancing and clapping to the beat at a campus concert before their cheers turned into bloodcurdling screams when four"gunmen" stormed into the venue and fired at them.
Within minutes, 31 officers from the Singapore Police Force arrived at the scene, took three of the assailants down and arrested the last one who surrendered. Senior Parliamentary Secretary for Home Affairs Amrin Amin, who observed the"shootout", said the exercise was targeted for young people as it was held in a school setting.
The exercise was jointly organised by SPF and RP, and supported by the Singapore Civil Defence Force, SMRT Buses and Wee Chwee Huat Scaffolding and Construction . Since 2016, RP has been conducting training and education for its students and staff to familiarise them with emergency procedures in response to terror attacks.
