PITTSBURGH — Law enforcement officials are warning the public of a planned active shooter training exercise in Pittsburgh on Tuesday.
The Operation STEEL training takes place at PNC Park from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
People in and around the PNC Park area may hear simulated gunfire from blank rounds during the exercise, especially around lunchtime.
Pennsylvania State Police say the training will involve the Special Emergency Response Team, troopers, Pittsburgh police officers and ballpark personnel.
Officials say the training provides ballpark operations team members with a “valuable opportunity to observe, learn and work alongside” police partners and gain insight into first responder procedures during a critical incident.
