TARRANT COUNTY (WBAP/KLIF News) – First responders from all over Tarrant County are at Tarrant County college for a mass casualty disaster drill.

The training the firefighters and paramedics are going through could also be used in a Brussels-style terrorist attack.

“What we’re doing out here is the same thing they’re having to do over there. It’s the same type of preparation that goes into it; whether it’s a terrorist attack and airplane crash or a hazmat emergency of some type.”

James craft with Tarrant County College says today’s exercise simulated a military airplane crash with multiple people injured.
