HMMM: NYC STEPS UP ITS ANTI-RADIATION POLICE UNITS

REUTERS:

While more than 2,000 belt-mounted radiation detectors are already used by city police, this will be the first time in the United States they will be combined with GPS technology to allow central monitoring, said police spokesman Paul Browne.

... A squad of 210 officers was being assigned to the World Trade Center site and surrounding area, parts of which are still under construction. Many officers will have detectors that can send an alert to a central command center if a spike in radiation levels is detected.

... The NYPD also has upgraded its network of surveillance cameras, soon to number about 2,000, with software that can raise an alert if a camera detects suspicious activity or objects.

  1. I am surprised they are not going round all the churches and synagogues with a geiger counter, as well as Tea Party buildings, due to all the Christian-Judaic-tea party terrorists!!
