One of the more intense events of the year — New Year’s Eve in Times Square — came off without any major incidents.
The New York FBI office said it deployed hundreds of employees including agents, analysts and professional staff to deal with the event. It also worked with other law enforcement agencies like the New York Police Dept. and members of the Joint Terrorism Task Force.
“We are constantly working to help keep this city safe. At high profile events, like New Year’s Eve, the FBI works tirelessly to prevent and thwart any possible attacks,” said assistant director in charge of the New York FBI office Janice K. Fedarcyk.
“We worked closely with our law enforcement partners and as we look back on the fact that last night was only filled with good memories, we can say job well done.”
Fedarcyk’s office posted some photo on the N.Y. FBI website from the evening. Here they are.
