Security Around Kennedy Space Center Increased
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) -- A NASA official says security has been increased at Kennedy Space Center because of fears of a terrorist attack before next week's election.
Cal Burch is chief of the Protective Services Office at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration center in Cape Canaveral. He says they believe the center is a highly visible target, as other major government facilities are around the country.
Among the stronger security measures are more officers at the visitor complex and hands-on badge checks.
Burch says he can't confirm a specific threat. Burch says it's not clear how long the realignment of security forces at the center will continue.
