The NYPD's Special Operations Division conducted a counterterrorism drill in New York Harbor this afternoon.
Police participating in the simulation responded to a report of shots fired on a NY Waterway Ferry in the waters between Liberty Island and Ellis Island.
Members of the Emergency Services Unit then dropped in on the boat from a helicopter, while other officers taking part in the exercise approached on police boat and tried to board the ferry.
The United States Coast Guard was also be a part of the drill, which lasted about an hour.
