Yes, when there's a report that a gunman has already shot someone, the police should respond by... hiding.

Of course not, they should respond Hollywood-style, so that they create chaos and even more people get a chance to be shot, Mexican Standoff style.

After all if "a gunman has already shot someone", the police can obviously bring that person back to life by charging into the scene guns ablazing...

And, as many SWATing cases have shown us, "when there's a report that a gunman has already shot someone" it's necessarily true!
