World Series: St. Pete lays out security, traffic plan as city plans for Rays return home
More than 100 police officers, drones, K-9 teams and state and federal law enforcement partners will be part of a sweeping security operation when the World Series returns to Tropicana Field next week. St. Petersburg, Florida, has outlined a comprehensive security plan ahead of the World Series return to Tropicana Field next week. Over 100 police officers, drones, K-9 teams, and state and federal law enforcement partners will be involved in the operation. The city expects roughly 40,000 people at each sold-out game, with another 15,000 to 20,000 potentially gathering elsewhere around the city. The biggest challenge is traffic, with police planning to open three hours before each game, giving fans more time to arrive before the scheduled first pitch. An emergency operations center will be active at the St. Petersburg Police Department, and drones will be used to monitor vehicle and pedestrian traffic and respond to suspicious activity. St. Pete's Mayor Ken Welch and Police Chief Anthony Holloway have outlined the plans ahead of Game 3 of the Tampa Bay Rays.
