Most attendants went out the emergency exits when the alarm went off. All personnel were previously informed of said drill. Some students of the Psychology School (FaPsi) of the Autonomous University of Nuevo León were present. People from the University Civil Protection simulated to control the incident with a fire extinguisher and save the attendants.
Outside of the facilities paramedics with first aid equipment was present. This activity helped to raise awareness of what to do in case of any emergency or danger.
