What to expect in lockdown coverage (typical, non-technical)
- A lockdown or shelter-in-place order is typically issued after reports of a potential threat, with a cleanup period once the area is secure.
- Updates usually include: status of the threat, whether shelter-in-place is still active, campus buildings affected, any injuries or evacuations, and when the all-clear is given.
