You have been warned.

The mock terrorism scenario is to include people dressed up like zombies who will test the readiness of first responders and law enforcement to a large-scale crisis, according to Fox News.

First responders and law enforcement will be fighting off zombies next month in a training exercise that will rival any Hollywood movie. The good guys will be fighting off zombies that look like they came right out of the “Walking Dead,” claims Brad Barker, the president of the organization hosting this training. The Counter-Terrorism Summit in San Diego next month is putting a spin on the exercises like never seen before.

Barker said the zombies throw a whimsical spin on this very well-respected training exercise. The event is hosted by the security firm of HALO Corp. The mock terrorism scenario is to include people dressed up like zombies who will test the readiness of first responders and law enforcement to a large-scale crisis, according to Fox News.

This is not the first time a leg of the government used zombies for a helping hand. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention unveiled a public service campaign last year with tips on how to prepare for major emergencies. While some thought the use of zombies was ridiculous, it did the trick. The CDC got their message out to the masses by using the zombies, which caught the eye of many more people than a generic warning would have.

Next month’s zombie training exercise will not be a pretty sight, as these zombies are going to be done up in Hollywood fashion. In fact Barker said, “It’s going to be pretty scary looking.”

The security firm HALO Corp, which already sounds like something out of zombie fiction, announced it will conduct zombie-apocalypse training exercises for about 1,000 military personnel, police officials, medical experts, and federal workers during an annual counter-terrorism summit. The scenario, as reported by Military Times, will even include immersive Hollywood sets and zombies roaming an island, harassing troops and medical responders. The Military Times does point out the zombies are not real.

Though obviously tongue-in-cheek and part of a larger, more serious course load, the exercise does present interesting situations and challenges for personnel involved.

Zombie apocalypses seem to gaining traction, with the CDC and the Department of Homeland Security having both released hypothetical guides to surviving zombie attacks in the last year.

Like jobs and economic activity, hope is in short supply in Camden City these days. Thirty-nine murders so far this year. July's 13 murders are the most for the month since a serial killer struck in July of 1948.

"It's a horrible situation," Robbinsville Mayor David Fried said "Horrible for the family. Horrible for the officers who had to deal with one of their own sergeants."

"People are under a lot of pressure and they snap," said one local resident.

Lee is undergoing a psychiatric evaluation at this Trenton hospital after he was charged in a half-naked attack on the disabled woman inside her town home at Project Freedom. Police say when she and her son fled the on-duty officer's violent assault, he broke into a bedroom, knocked her from her wheelchair and attacked her again. Her wheelchair bound husband was unable to help.

"A little boy who is 4-years-old who wanted to protect his mom. He's a brave little boy," Fried added.

"I feel so sorry for the family," said Jim Corcodilis, a shop owner in Robbinsville.

"I'm appalled at what happened. It's unfortunate," said resident Kevin Sullivan.

Police responded and found Sgt. Lee half clothed, sitting on a couch, mumbling. As he was being taken away in a patrol car, he kicked out a rear window and escaped. Five officers finally managed to recapture him after a brief chase.

"We've never had any challenges with him," Fried explained. "He's never exhibited any behavior like this."

No one at the victim's home wanted to speak about what police said was a random attack, but Lee's arrest and the bizarre assault shook the police department and stunned local residents.

"I am very upset with what's going on. There's got to be more to this," Sullivan said.

Both victims were treated and released from a local hospital. Sgt. Lee is still being evaluated.

He was ordered held on $250,000 bail and was charged with aggravated assault and a list of other offenses. The mayor says he's known Sgt. Lee for years and never saw any strange behavior, just good police work.

Lee is married with three young sons.

Investigators believe Robbinsville cop that attacked boy, woman in wheelchair was not under the influence of drugs, alcohol
