A Clarkstown police report issued on December 28, 2012, confirmed that The Journal News has hired armed security guards from New City-based RGA Investigations and that they are manning the newspaper\u2019s Rockland County headquarters at 1 Crosfield Ave., West Nyack, through at least tomorrow, Wednesday, January 2, 2013.<\/p>\n
According to police reports on public record, Journal News Rockland Editor Caryn A. McBride was alarmed by the volume of \u201cnegative correspondence,\u201d namely an avalanche of phone calls and emails to the Journal News office, following the newspaper\u2019s publishing of a map of all pistol permit holders in Rockland and Westchester.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
McBride had filed at least two reports with the Clarkstown Police Department due to perceived threats. However, the police did not find the communications in question actually threatening. Incident-Report 2012-00033099 describes McBride telling police she was worried because an email writer wondered \u201cwhat McBride would get in her mail now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Police said the email \u201cdid not constitute an offense\u201d and did not contain an actual threat.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

See how it works?<\/p>\n
