FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Students at Florida Southwestern State College will make the campus look like a bomb went off Thursday morning in a mock drill to train EMT's, paramedics and others.

A mock disaster will be staged on campus simulating an explosion at a concert.  First responders will be greeted with a mixture of training dummies and live volunteers dressed up to simulate various injuries.

Reporter Malcolm Johnson was live at the school on Fox 4 Morning News to give us a sneak preview of the preparations.
