Police are assuring athletes and patrons attending the BSSAC finals at the National Stadium they have nothing to fear. This morning a bomb scare forced many attending the event to wait outside while police officers carried out their checks of the area.
The threats were made on social media. Acting Inspector Rodney Inniss told NATIONNEWS that the police were aware of the post.
The police spokesman said, “for all major events the police have to do checks for security clearance.” Inniss said the officers who did their checks found nothing.
Athletes and patrons are now inside the stadium and BSSAC Day 2 finals are underway. (KOB)
