12-11-2017 09:57 AM Release Date: December 11, 2017 For Immediate Release Office of the Press Secretary Contact: 202-282-8010 WASHINGTON – Today, Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen M. Nielsen spoke with New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and New York Police Department (NYPD) Commissioner James O’Neill regarding the details of the attempted terrorist attack in New York City. Secretary Nielsen released the following statement on the Department’s role in coordinating a federal response to terror-related incidents. “The Department of Homeland Security is taking appropriate action to protect our people and our country*in the wake of today’s attempted terrorist attack in New York City.*We will continue to assist New York authorities with the response and investigation and we urge the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity. More broadly, the administration continues to adopt significant security measures to keep terrorists from entering our country and from recruiting within our borders. The enemy we face is persistent and adaptive. But they should know this: Americans will not be coerced by terrorism, and we will not allow it to become the new normal. We will fight back aggressively and bring terrorists to justice.” # # # Topics: Preventing Terrorism, Transportation Security Keywords: attack, federal response, new york, physical security measures, security measures, suspicious activity, suspicious behavior, terrorism, travel security More... |
