Buffalo Bills Seek Additional Game Day Police Presence
The Buffalo Bills and Erie County have agreed to more than double the county’s police presence inside and outside Ralph Wilson Stadium as part of a proposed agreement added to the new stadium lease, Buffalo News reports.
The Bills want 128 more Erie County sheriff’s deputies or officers from other agencies to patrol the stadium on game days, and the team would foot the bill. On Monday, NFL owners voted to approve the new lease agreement. The new 10-year lease extension would provide for $130 million in renovations to the stadium.
