BREAKING: N.J. Adds Security In Wake Of Terror Attacks
N.J. added troopers at ferry terminals and elsewhere, even though they're not allowed onboard because of a jurisdictional dispute with N.Y.

If you’ve noticed more troopers in certain locations, it’s because State Police have deployed more than 100 additional troopers locations statewide after last week’s deadly terrorism attacks in California.
They’re just not allowed to ride ferries.
Col. Rick Fuentes, State Police superintendent, said the troopers have been added to ferry terminals and at train stations in the wake of the terrorism attack that killed 14 in California last week.

President Obama has called the mass shooting a terrorism attack, one that was apparently homegrown involving two individuals who were radicalized.
As a result, Fuentes told WNBC-TV in New York that the heavily armed troopers will be deployed at least into the new year.

The issue is that, when people board the ferries, they’ll go it alone. The report says troopers can only go to the dock and won’t go on the ride to N.Y.
NY. Gov. Andrew Cuomo hasn’t signed a jurisdictional order to give them the right to board a ferry to New York. The report says that, in past times of crisis, the troopers have had the right to board.
“The Hudson River as a boundary against the threat of terrorism currently in New Jersey is really ludicrous,” he told WNBC-TV, saying that that notion “is lost on ISIS.”
