Defense group shares tips on how to protect yourself

JACKSON, Tenn.—It’s never too late to educate yourself on being protected.

A nonprofit organization offered that opportunity to the community.

Urban Defense Training Group hosted a Situational Awareness and Defending Yourself meeting.

Participants had the opportunity to hear Ken Alexandria with Law Shield discuss ways to protect yourself while in danger.

Videos of past experiences dealing with guns and knives were shown in the meeting.

Alexandria then showed the participants through those videos, different ways that they could protect themselves.

“We do this type of thing every quarters, so we invite the community out as well as our members,” said Terrill Perry, President of Urban Defense Inc.

Refreshments were also served to the participants.
