"Tisch stated that thousands of police officers will be dispatched to the heart of the Big Apple to ensure that potential dangers are curbed. That includes officers from our specialized units, including the emergency service unit, canine, bomb squad, heavy weapons team, and harbor teams. Our helicopters and drones will also be deployed during the day to provide comprehensive coverage in real-time, Tisch said."
"We will also deploy dedicated pickpocket teams, response teams, and additional uniform patrols to address quality of life and public safety concerns. There will be assets that you will see and others that you will not see. The joint operational center will be fully activated with all of our city state and federal partners and personnel. The extra show of strength from the NYPD comes amid a heightened alert status over the past two years"
