Or the "actor" would have been blasted to pieces by all the customers carrying concealed weapons! I am very anti-lawsuit, but if ever there was grounds for one, this is it. This is the kind of reckless, negligent behavior that a lawsuit is intended to punish.
MOUNT HOLLY, N.J. - A New Jersey pharmacy technician who says she was traumatized when a masked gunman burst into her store demanding OxyContin is suing her employers for arranging the mock holdup.
Babette Perry says in a lawsuit that she was not told in advance of the training drill in December 2007 at the Hampton Behavioral Health Center.
She says she was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder after the gunman entered the store, claiming he had taken another worker hostage. She says she tried to call for help, but the phone wasn't working.
She later found out the gun was a fake and the gunman worked for the company.
Perry is seeking damages from the health center and its parent company, Universal Health Services Inc., of King of Prussia, Pa.
The general counsel for Universal declined to comment on the case.

This is one case of PTSD in a civilian that I would probably believe. Having a gun thrust in your face by what you believe to be a criminal would most likely leave a mark.
You know that general counsel is going "THIS is why these idiots should run shit like this past legal first!!" He has got to be dying a slow death inside - maybe more so if he DID sign off on this "training". Our GC would be going postal on some people... Ten bucks says this was some fucked up HR stunt.

Obviously this was a Michael Scott idea
