<p>FBI agents provided an active shooter training seminar for leadership and staff at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield Township, Michigan, just six weeks before armed security at the synagogue successfully stopped a shooter on the premises.</p>
<p>The FBI&#8217;s Detroit Field Office shared a photo and some information about the training on January 30, 2026, as two special agents joined Temple Israel&#8217;s clergy and staff members to walk them through active shooter scenarios and drills that could help them to prepare for the unthinkable.</p>

<p>&#8220;FBI Detroit led an Active Shooter Attack Prevention and Preparedness (ASAPP) training for the clergy and staff of Temple Israel in West Bloomfield,&#8221; the post read. &#8220;The FBI course combines lessons learned from years of research and employs scenario-based exercises to help participants practice the decision-making process of the Run, Hide, Fight principles and take necessary actions for survival.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We appreciate them for having us. Our Division has partnered with many organizations in Michigan and is committed to protecting schools, workplaces, houses of worship, medical facilities, transportation centers, government facilities, other public gathering sites, and communities,&#8221; the post concluded, encouraging other organizations to reach out for access to similar training. &#8220;Contact us or your local FBI Field Office for questions regarding active shooter training.&#8221;</p>
<p>Just six weeks later, on March 12, a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/police-respond-to-reports-of-active-shooter-as-michigan-synagogue-goes-up-in-smoke">shooter attacked</a> the massive synagogue. Ramming the building with his vehicle first — and armed with a rifle — security personnel on site were able to quickly evaluate the situation and engage the shooter.</p>
<p>As The Daily Wire initially reported, a security guard at the synagogue engaged the attacker and “shots were fired,” according to Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard. The shooter was found dead in the vehicle. One security guard was injured after he was hit by the attacker’s vehicle, but he’s expected to recover, according to Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard.</p>
<p>The Republican Jewish Coalition commented on the fortuitous timing of the training, saying in an X post, &#8220;@FBI led an Active Shooter Attack Prevention and Preparedness (ASAPP) training at Temple Israel less than two months [ago]. @FBIDirectorKash. No doubt this helped to prevent a mass casualty event today.&#8221;</p>
