With help from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, California Highway Patrol, and the Los Angeles Department of Transportation, the Pasadena police department provided a safe environment for the Rose Parade and Rose Bowl game. Interim Chief Chris Vicino said he is ” very proud of the way our police department engaged with community members and visitors, providing the right type of security for a ‘family atmosphere’ to be enjoyed by all.” He went on to say that during the parade the dept. arrested 41 people. Most of the arrests involved public intoxication, and a “handful” for assault. At the game 13 were arrested – most, again, for public intoxication.
As Pasadena prepares for the Bowl Championship Series game on Thursday, security around the Rose Bowl Stadium will again tighten. The police will also provide extra patrols in downtown areas, with the anticipated after game parties etc.
