A Methuen Mass school will soon deploy an automated system to detect and track a gunman on campus.
Methuen Mayor Stephen Zanni and other city officials will soon attend a demonstration of the technology developed by Massachusetts-based Shooter Detection Systems.
According to the Security website, the smoke alarm-sized system, which is fully automated, will give police a shooter’s exact location in real-time.
The system relies on sensors to send an alert to police within one second of a gunshot being fired, said Fox News. Once the sensors are activated, they begin recording from inside the building, so first responders know what’s happening before they enter the vicinity.
School officials say the investment will dramatically improve current school lockdown procedures.
New England saw one of the worst school shootings in U.S. history when a 20-year-old gunman killed 26 children and adults at an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut, in December 2012.

anyone who has their kid in a public school system deserves the BS flying at them ..
wake up people ..love your kid? want them really educated ? than the public fool system isnt the right move
and they keep giving you reasons why..shooting Hoaxes , Cops in schools, Common Core, making your kids leave their constitutional , and human rights at the doorstep, bomb threats, Bullies both kids and staff, unionized teachers that dont teach Sh*t! but whats been on the ditto for the past decade or even longer, the deplorable lunches .. dont make me make a list!
seriously if you love your kids , why would you do this to them? too lazy to teach your own? , too lazy to get involved in your kids education?
really? there are plenty of on line sources, and plenty of home school resources .. stop making excuses
jeeeze
So we can save the children. we just need to wait until a shooter fires their first shot. Then this system will shower the children in a protective layer of unicorn dreams and lollipops.
Iv got a great way to end world hunger. I have built a machine that if someone is about to die of starvation the sensor detects this and calls unicef. Then unicef comes to the rescue. lol
I think they would be better off putting pepper spray cans in the halls and if the alarm is triggered they deploy. EVERYONE is knocked down and unable to breath.
What about an ultra sonic weapon that detonates ammo? One shot triggers this and the bullets in the mags(across the whole property) all pop rendering them useless…….or just put it on every entry into the building.
OMG – this is like that first head of DHS who made his fortune with a company making the body scanners for airports after Bush/Nazi/Israel/Saudis pulled off 9/11
This is certainly another Jew company………
Why don’t the school boards just lobby the CIA to release the locations of all their future mass shooting hoaxes – and just put them in those schools.
There is just no end to this farce……..at least not until the public wises up to the unlimited number of ways the above mentioned crime syndicate devises to scam all the money from us……..
Remember the Mossad motto “By deception We Will Do War” – that pretty much covers their MO on all fronts of money making………
“The system relies on sensors to send an alert to police within one second of a gunshot being fired, said Fox News.”
And the clean-up crew will be there promptly within an hour or so.
Or immediately, if there just ‘happens’ to be a ‘drill’ taking place simultaneously.
wait times may vary based on demographics…
