Explosion outside soccer stadium in Istanbul
Reuters, 12/10/16 A suspected car bomb outside a football stadium in central Istanbul wounded at least 20 people on Saturday hours after the end of a match between two of Turkey’s top teams, Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu said. Armed police sealed off streets around the Vodafone Arena, home to the Besiktas football team, a Reuters witness said. TV footage showed what appeared to be the wreckage of a burned out car and two separate fires on the road outside the stadium. Soylu, speaking in parliament during a budget hearing, said around 20 people had been wounded and that initial indications were that the blast was caused by a car bomb targeting a riot police bus.

Police Use Drone To Monitor Crowds At Aston Villa-Birmingham City Rivalry Match
Police Use Drone To Monitor Crowds At Aston Villa-Birmingham City Rivalry Match November 2, 2016 Malika Andrews West Midlands police officers had sky-high reinforcements at the Aston Villa-Birmingham City match on Sunday. For the first time ever, drones were used to monitor fans. The drone used is capable of taking clear, high-definition footage that police are able to use to identify suspects and can fly up to 400 feet. Aviation rules prohibit the drone from flying over the stadium, and it must stay away from residential properties. “This technology is fantastic and has real benefits to modern day policing,” Sergeant Keith Holliday, who is part of the West Midlands Police football policing operation, said in a statement. According to the West Midlands Police, a professionally trained remote pilot would control the drone. Another officer observed the drone to make sure that it was safe flight and monitored the images being captured. Despite emotions being high for the first match up between the two clubs in more than five years, the derby finished without any major incidents. There were precautions taken – like the non-sale of alcohol inside the away fan section and there were limited numbers of tickets sold to away Keep Reading

A quietly escalating issue for NFL: Fan violence and how to contain it
By Kent Babb and Steven Rich October 28, 2016 Earlier this month, Joe Bauer and his wife, Sharon, went to M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore to watch the Ravens play the Oakland Raiders. During the second half, they were walking on an exit ramp when, according to a Baltimore police report, an argument turned into a full-blown altercation; a Raiders fan punched Bauer, a 55-year-old Ravens season ticket holder, and Bauer fell and hit his head. Bauer suffered a brain injury and was initially given a 30 percent chance to survive. Though he has since improved, a relative said, his family is uncertain he ever will be the same. While the National Football League is more popular than ever, expected this year to set a record by surpassing $13 billion in revenue, it faces potent threats to its dominance over the American sports landscape: declining television ratings, an inconsistent response to incidents of domestic abuse involving players and continuing worries about player safety. But an equally alarming threat is unruly fan behavior in and around NFL stadiums. It has some in the league concerned that it is driving fans to stay away. “If you are concerned about bringing your family Keep Reading

Three years after Boston bombings, marathons still hold their breath
Brent Schrotenboer , USA TODAY Sports 3:37 a.m. EDT October 6, 2016 Perhaps no sporting event in the world is harder to safeguard from terrorism than a giant footrace in a big city. It’s practically impossible. Unlike stadiums with limited access points, major marathons spread themselves out over 26.2-mile courses near skyscrapers and subways. In Chicago and New York this month and next, they also will have at least 35,000 runners watched by more than a million spectators, all subject to countless risks during an event that lasts several hours. “The security apparatus continues to hold its breath to get through these events,” said Jim Reese, a former U.S. Army Delta Force officer and current private security consultant. Just last month, a pipe bomb exploded in a trash can along the course of a 5K charity race in New Jersey. No one was hurt. And now comes the next test, on Sunday at the Chicago Marathon, where much has changed to ease the breathing since the Boston Marathon bombings in 2013. Like other marathons, Chicago has significantly beefed up its defense systems, including a stronger law enforcement presence on the course, more rigorous checkpoints in populous areas and added surveillance Keep Reading

Man wielding machete killed after entering Colorado athletic department (Updated)
Graham Watson, 10/5/16 The man wielding a machete in the Colorado athletic department was shot and killed by police, according to a statement by the CU Boulder Police Department. Colorado coach Mike MacIntyre told the Jim Rome Show his team was on the practice field when the incident occurred. “We were on the practice field, fortunately,” MacIntyre said. “He was in our building. I don’t know all the details of it at all. I’m still on lockdown as I talk to you. We’re not allowed to go up into our building. I’m on the first floor. We were at practice. It didn’t affect any of that. Our young men have just left the room, and we can leave here in a little bit. It’s still in the middle of it, so to speak. “But our protocol and everything worked exactly like it should. All of our athletes, all of our employees are safe. It was really a scary situation, no doubt.” MacIntyre said there were other football employees in the building when the man entered. He said the coaches were made aware of the incident and to stay where they were. “The first thing that went through my mind when Keep Reading
Homegrown terrorists to target concerts, sporting events, Homeland Security warns
Homegrown terrorists to target concerts, sporting events, Homeland Security warns Top counterterrorism official says Islamic State’s ability to strike in U.S. not ‘significantly diminished’ By Rowan Scarborough – The Washington Times – Tuesday, September 27, 2016 The nation’s top counterterrorism official testified Tuesday that the world’s army of terrorists is “broader, wider and deeper than any point since 9/11,” the day al Qaeda attacked America. Nicholas Rasmussen, who directs the National Counterterrorism Center, said the Islamic State may be losing ground in Iraq and Syria but its ability to strike abroad, including in the U.S., “has not thus far been significantly diminished.” The nation is facing a phase in which people quickly radicalize and launch simple but deadly attacks before authorities have time to detect them, he said. His testimony to the Senate Homeland Security Committee conflicts with upbeat reports from the White House, which has focused on territorial losses in Syria and Iraq as signs that the Islamic State is being defeated. “Even ISIL’s leaders know they’re going to keep losing,” President Obama said in August. “In their message to followers, they’re increasingly acknowledging that they may lose Mosul and Raqqa, and ISIL is right … they will lose Keep Reading
