(WSVN) -- Local law enforcement agencies prepared for the worst case scenario at Dolphin Mall as they trained in a mock drill, Wednesday morning.
The training exercise was designed to expose officers to the threat of an active shooter in a populated shopping mall.
Nine different tactical teams including, federal, state and local law enforcement were armed with drones, armored vehicles, high powered rifles and K-9s.
Sweetwater Police Chief Jesus Menocal said, "If something were to happen here, not only do we have police officers assigned to the mall, but we have other agencies that would respond quickly that we train together with."
The officers rescued victims, negotiated with a suspect who had taken a hostage and treated injured officers.
Sweetwater Mayor Jose Diaz said, "I think the community feels safer, and they feel the police department is here to protect them."
It was a dramatic dress rehearsal that is held at least once a year.
