Following Saturday night’s terror attacks in London, the NYPD has deployed members of its Critical Response Command to heavily traveled pedestrian locations around the city, but stressed there are no specific, credible threats to the city.
“Go about your Sat. night, NYPD cops are protecting you,” the Police Department said in a tweet. “Our prayers are with all in London.”
Mayor Bill de Blasio said on Twitter that people should not be alarmed by the increased police presence in the city.
In a separate tweet, the mayor said: “New York City stands with the people of London. Our prayers are with the victims, their families and the courageous first responders.”
