***Terror Alert Issued For Tri-State Residents***
Alert Level Remains Elevated
CINCINNATI -- Tri-state police are alerting citizens of a new terror warning, WLWT News 5's Juliette Vara reported.
While the alert level remains at elevated, Cincinnati police chief and Hamilton County sheriff sent a letter to local media asking for help to alert citizens that now is the most crucial time to fight terrorism.
Some citizens have questioned why the Tri-state is at risk for an attack, but authorities said the Midwest could be a larger target than New York City or Washington D.C.
"It's harder for them (terrorists) to assault (hard) targets," said Steve Barnett, of the Hamilton County Sheriff's office. "Possibly, they would go after a soft target." (snip)

Makes sense, Velveeta.
With NYC and Washington having stepped up security, it's a bit harder to pull off something there.
But it's impossible to have that level of security everywhere in the country.
We all have to watch out for anything strange, all citizens have to pay attention.
