Police said the training is something they do every year to help them prepare for worst-case scenarios.
The training area is filled with rooms and hallways that can be constructed to resemble a house, a school, or even an apartment building.
Officers will run down hallways and clear rooms with a partner to just take a glimpse of situations they can be in.
During the training, officers will hear simulated gunshots and the police talking over the radio.
