NYPD Chief John Chell outlined comprehensive safety protocols for the July 4th celebrations in New York City. Preparation for this event began a year ago, involving extensive coordination with federal partners. The NYPD will deploy thousands of officers and utilize drones to ensure safety across various domains, including land, water, and air. There are no credible threats reported, but the police remain vigilant following warnings of potential lone wolf attacks. Chell encourages the public to enjoy the festivities confidently, as safety measures are in place.
Chell pointed out that the armed cops seen on Thursday afternoon were part of the extensive safety preparations, emphasizing the vast coordination and communication with federal partners.
This is all-hands-on-deck for the NYPD to make sure the water is safe, the land is safe, the air is safe, Chell said, urging people to enjoy the fireworks.
