Homeland Security has announced that it will increase security at federal buildings in D.C. and other major American cities as a “precautionary step.” The decision comes shortly after last week’s suspected terrorism events in the Canadian capital of Ottawa, although the announcement did not mention a specific connection or threat. Neither the buildings to receive extra security nor the specific security measures have been disclosed. The decision will use the forces of the Federal Protective Service, which NBC Washington reports “protects more than 9,500 federal facilities visited daily by roughly 1.4 million people.”
