De Blasio: NYC’s New Year’s Eve security prep extraordinary
Mayor Bill de Blasio said on Tuesday that the city has been making extensive security preparations for New Year’s Eve, with the NYPD and its new anti-terror force coordinating with a number of agencies including the FBI.
Following a year filled with terror attacks around the world, the mayor said this year’s security planning was “extraordinary.”
“I want everyone to understand and to hear that the NYPD is ready, that the preparations for New Year’s Eve are more extensive than ever,” he said during a live interview on WOR 710 with Len Berman and Joe Bartlett.
