Public safety agencies at all levels of government and the private sector have increased security protocols. Andy Arena is Executive Director of the Detroit Crime Commission. He also served as Special Agent in Charge at the Detroit Bureau of the FBI and after 9-11 was Chief of International Terrorism Operations in Washington D.C.
