Counterterror NYC

As evident from 9/11 and more recent terrorist attacks, New York City is a top target number for international terrorists. National Geographic embeds with New York's finest, the New York Police Department, for an in-depth look at the terror task force responsible for defending the city that never sleeps. Major events take place throughout the year that could be a tempting target for a suicide bomber, truck bomb, backpack bomb or small arms attack.
