HILLSBOROUGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- Emergency vehicles will respond to UNC Hospital in Hillsborough on Sunday.

Don't worry. It's not anything bad; it's just a drill.

Employees from more than a dozen agencies will hold an active shooter drill at the Waterstone Drive campus.

The drill will start around 8 a.m. and last until 3 p.m.

It will give hospital, law enforcement and other employees a chance to prepare for the worst case scenario before the building opens to patients in January.
