Active Shooter! Large-Scale Simulated Terror Attack at Boston’s Fenway Park on June 12th!
Fenway Park will be targeted for a simulated “large-scale terrorist attack” with “active shooters” Sunday as federal agents and Boston cops practice their game plan for the unthinkable — and they’re looking for Red Sox fans who are willing to play themselves while they do it.
Law enforcement and Red Sox officials emphatically stated the first-ever exercise in the 104-year-old ballpark does not reflect on any active security concerns.
“It is not in any way indicative of deficiencies at the park,” said police spokesman Lt. Mike McCarthy.
“We wouldn’t want people to think an incident prompted us to do this,” added Red Sox spokeswoman Zineb Curran.
The Boston Police Department is hosting the June 12 drill, McCarthy said, and plans to put out a casting call for more than 100 volunteers to portray fans caught in a violent showdown between terrorists and police and Department of Homeland Security agents that will include realistic-sounding explosions and gunfire. This is the first time that the BPD has held a drill of this kind at Fenway Park, Curran said.
The BPD was looking for a large, open venue for its latest drill after using hospitals and hotels in the past. Both Fenway Park and TD Garden were offered up by their owners.
