In the wake of the attacks in Paris, Governor Tom Wolf is calling on all Pennsylvanians to remain vigilant.
Officials say security efforts continue as usual in Pennsylvania, with perhaps some slight differences.
“We’re doing what we can to make sure the citizens of Pennsylvania are safe,” Wolf said over the weekend. “Officials assure me that there is no imminent threat to Pennsylvania.”
The governor says you may notice some additional security measures.
“You may notice some difference but we are an open society and we want to continue to enjoy the benefits of being an open society,” Wolf said. He noted additional security measures were in place at Sunday’s Steelers and Eagles football games and will continue at NHL games this week.
It is important that Pennsylvania residents feel safe in their community at all times, and increased security measures at sports games and wider events in the area, will be a start in helping them to continue to enjoy life amidst all of this devastation.
Terror attacks, like those that happened in Paris, can happen anywhere in the world and at any time. To ensure your safety throughout the year, you may want to add to your own safety measures, like looking into home security systems or close protection security guards in your area, to lower your risk of facing attacks like this.
Increased protocols throughout the community will need to be considered to ensure that Pennsylvania is a safe place to live.
While some governors have said they would not allow Syrian refugees in their states, Governor Wolf says as long as they are properly vetted by the feds, Pennsylvania should open its doors.
Pa. residents are urged to report any suspicious activity to law enforcement.
