Police, fire and EMT teams have been deployed around the city tonight in response to unverified reports of a radiological threat.
Authorities stress that the threat is unconfirmed and that the city's terror alert status remained unchanged.
Nevertheless, police say that they have deployed a battery of radiological sensors, including vehicle and helicopter-mounted devices, as a precautionary measure.
Authorities are also checking vehicles at checkpoints in Lower Manhattan and selected Manhattan entry points.
Looks like another thread on this got un-pulled.
