TO
KEEP EVERYONE SAFE AT NEXT

SERIOUSLY....

VEGAS,,,,
SUPER Angela Singley/Mississippi
3 My heart breaks for those
families it was a
tragedy that we shouldn't even
have to deal with here."

going." SECURITY AT THE FESTIVAL

MORE THAN A FEW PEOPLE'S
MINDS... SUPER Liz
Moorer/Greenville 2 "No matter
what they put in place if they
really want to kill a lot of
people I think
they will find a way to do it."
GULF SHORES POLICE OFFICERS AND
SUPERVISORS HAVE TRAINED AT
LARGE MUSIC FESTIVALS LIKE
LOLLAPALOOZA AND COACHELLA...TO
ENHANCE THEIR SECURITY
MEASURES...
SUPER Sgt. Jason Woodruff/Gulf
Shores Police
7"We wouldn't dare get into our
tactics, techniques or
procedures but those
are things we have looked at for
years."
AS IN YEARS PAST...IT WILL BE
ALL-HANDS-ON- DECK FOR THE
FESTIVAL....BUT IN TIMES LIKE
THESE
FOLKS SAY EVEN THAT...MAY NOT BE
ENOUGH.

enforcement
can control things going on in
the world
today they're not enough of em.
They
can do all they can but they
dont' have enough manpower to
protect all that's going on"
