It sounds to me like the medical training happened well after the actual shooting (even though the training was planned).

The shooting happened just after midnight on Friday, and I can't fathom that they were doing disaster training until the actual DAY of Friday.

Not saying it's not kind of weird, but it's not the same as the NORAD exercises that WERE happening at the exact same time as 911.

From the article, it says, "The shootings in Aurora were incorporated into the training," which means it must've happened well after the shootings took place.
