30 seconds of the alarm is enough...

after that it’s a distraction and hindrance

Yeah, but confusion and distraction work both ways. Tough call whether to shut it off or not.

Tell you the truth, watching the video got even MY adrenaline flowing to where I didn’t notice the alarm much after a minute or two. Imagine THEIR adrenaline levels!

That alarm may have had the benefit of masking the sounds of the incoming police officers for the shooter.

I agree about hating to listen to it, but God forbid they turn it off and someone thinks that means the danger is past and it’s all clear.
