Before the attack in a train car in New York that left at least 29 people injuredNoticias Univision Chicago took on the task of asking transportation systems and security officials about the measures they plan to take.

The Chicago Transit Authority (CTAfor its acronym in English) said that at the moment there are no reports of threats to the system, this despite the incidents of violence that have been recorded in recent weeks on buses they drive.

For its part, Metra responded:
—
“we continue as vigilant as ever to security issues and as a precaution we have deployed additional resources. And we want to remind and encourage our riders and the public that if you see anything or anyone suspicious to report it to Metra Police at 312-322-2800 or through the Metra COPS app. If you see something, say so,” Metra asked.

While the Chicago Police (CDP) said they stand in solidarity with New Yorkers.
—
“We stand in solidarity with the people of New York City following this despicable act of violence. The Chicago Police Department is closely monitoring events in New York City. While there is no actionable intelligence at this time, CPD will maintain appropriate resources to ensure safety on the public transportation system.”
