Omaha Police encourage fans to be vigilant throughout the CWS and urges people to immediately report any suspicious behavior or unattended items to nearby officers, or simply call 9-1-1.
The safety and security measures are developed by the Metropolitan Entertainment & Convention Authority, which operates the stadium.
Law enforcement and security officers will screen fans and employees at all entrances to the ballpark.
Police say fans should expect a brief “wanding” before entrance is permitted into the enclosure in North Downtown.
A clear and small bag policy is currently in effect at TD Ameritrade Park Omaha and will be enforced throughout the Series.
Bags that adhere to this policy include:
--Clear, uncolored plastic bags.
--Small or clutch-sized purses or wallets, not exceeding 4.5 inches tall by 6.5 inches long.
--One-gallon, clear plastic freezer bags are permitted.
--Diaper bags must be clear plastic.
--Exceptions will be made for bags of medical necessity after a brief search.
OPD will also have additional officers in North Downtown and the riverfront, as well as Omaha’s Old Market area.
