NOPD Crime Blast
On Thursday, March 27, at about 9:00 A.M., a large full-scale terrorism EXERCISE will commence in the 2nd District. The EXERCISE is a joint effort between UASI (Urban Area Security Initiative) Region I and the U.S. Coast Guard. Numerous local, state and federal departments are participating in this EXERCISE. The EXERCISE will be on the Riverview portion of the Audubon Park property – what is commonly referred to as “The Fly.”
Residents and/or persons in the area can expect to see numerous emergency vehicles and emergency personnel who will be responding to this full-scale terrorism EXERCISE. This should not be a concern – it is merely part of the EXERCISE.
