PHOTOS: Ocean County EMS Agencies Conduct Mass Casualty Exercise Ahead of County Fair First responders from across Ocean County participated Tuesday in the county’s annual large-scale mass casualty incident (MCI) exercise at the Ocean County Fairgrounds, helping prepare for emergencies ahead of the opening of the 2026 Ocean County Fair. This year’s exercise, organized by the Ocean County EMS Coordinators in partnership with the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office Communications Center and the Ocean County Fire Marshal’s Office, with the support of the Ocean County Board of Commissioners, simulated a vehicle ramming incident that escalated into an active shooter scenario, with 25 victims requiring triage, treatment, and transport.

During the exercise, crews established triage, treatment, and transport areas while operating under the Incident Command System (ICS), strengthening interagency communication, coordination, and operational effectiveness.
