Out of Time: Why Most Deaths Occur During the First 120s of School Shootings
March 20, 2025
Mass shooting events often end before law enforcement can even arrive. With response times ranging from 10 minutes in urban areas to as long as 45 minutes in rural regions, the delay leaves victims vulnerable.
This is where we step in.
Campus Guardian Angel bridges this gap by deploying human-piloted drones capable of responding to threats within seconds.
Pre-positioned on trickle chargers throughout campus, they can launch within 15 seconds of an alert, engaging, delaying, and degrading the threat. In demonstrations, they have successfully disabled assailants within 30 seconds, providing law enforcement the time they need to arrive and end the assault on our children.
Equipped with non-lethal countermeasures such as pepper balls and flash-crash munitions, these drones disrupt the attacker’s focus, forcing the hunter to become the hunted. Instead of helplessly waiting for rescue, students and staff gain critical moments to escape or seek cover while law enforcement is en route as well as enhanced communication with professionals monitoring the situation. Campus Guardian Angel offers a revolutionary solution to enhancing security and saving lives.
