Emergency responders from across the Roanoke Valley participated in multiple mock disaster drills today.

The photos represented in this gallery are from the Highway 561 industrial park drill as well as the Halifax County Agricultural Auditorium where patients were seen and medications dispensed.

The Highway 561 scene not only simulated a plane crash, but an oil spill, vehicle fire and crash with a pin-in. The children photographed for this gallery suffered burns from what was thought to be anthrax.
