    Burr shoots Hamilton, Audience Panics, Three Injured

    My other background is in Emergency Medical Services. The audible alarm on the AED serves both as an alert mechanism for event staff and also a theft deterrent. These expensive and very portable devices are typically in a cabinet in a public area. They have to be easily found and accessed--but...
