On December 9, 2016, Ann Bertling (CSE) and her niece were ordered to shelter in place at a shopping center due to an active shooter in Bluffton, South Carolina.
Bertling and other shoppers shared information about their workplace violence training and worked together while they hid and barricaded themselves in the back of the store.
