A close call and a chaotic scene for a family when a car slammed into their home. It happened around 3 00 this morning. The fire Department Tells us the car pushed a parked truck through the familys garage. That sent a water heater into their bedroom where one person who was sleeping was injured. Officials say the truck ain the driveway may have saved the family members lives. They are investigating the cause of the crash, but the driver was going at a high rate of speed. Now back to the super bowl. Security around the super bowl will be some of the tightest in the world. This morning we take you behind the scenes not just what the feds are doing, but how they are doing it. How they identify suspicious people or objects. Stephen stock has this exclusive story. Multiple sources tell me that threats to the super bowl date back at least to last year. One person on the known terrorist watch list was seen by Law Enforcement getting through the first level of security outside the activities at last years super bowl in glendale, arizona. According to this threat assessment from federal agents obtained by nbc bay yararea, th remain concerned about terrorists interest in targeting events such as the super bowl with big crowds. This is actually created by our vetting and awareness team. Reporter it might look like just a Typical Office in silicon valley, this is the nerve center of some of the most sophisticated intelligence gathering of terrorist threats by federal, state and local Law Enforcement officials in the united states. Kind of gives an overview of the threats in our area. Reporter it looks similar to this room, a room nearby set up just for super bowl 50. But before any reports of suspicious activity gets here at the joint operations center, it comes through the Intelligence Center and a team of five specially u trained experts who sift through a constant stream of reports that arrive 24 7. We have to triage suspicious activity reporting. Reporter triage, as in spotting the real threat among the hundreds of calls, tips and reports of suspicious activity. We actually have criteria to say which ones should have the most importance, which should have the least and which one is bogus. Reporter the Intelligence Center director took us exclusively behind the scenes. This was developed in house by one of our fine staff from the federal agency. Reporter to see how the Data Analysis is already working. What we have done is connecting things like autoed license plate systems, dispatch systems, records and Management Systems so were not all islands on to ourselves. Reporter we got to meet the agent who developed this system. Although hes based in the greater San Francisco bay area, we agreed to hide his identity and not e reveal the federal agency where he works. The cutting edge Data Analysis system he developed has been adopted by federal security agencies and Intelligence Centers around the country. Our goal is that, yes, we want people to report but we want them to report accurate information. Reporter its like trying to find a needle in a hay stake stak. They received 800 tips in the bay area alone of suspicious activity. While 17 of those tips were routine criminal activity, 3. 2 of them were elevated enough to check out. But only 1 were found to be credible prompting the fbi to actually take action to stop the th threat. A squad would have to run down every one of those leads on their own. Reporter other hightech tools will also be in use during super bowl 50 including facial recognition technology, monitoring of internet sites, and graduated security zones. One thing we can do better is be more forthcoming of information. Reporter tom served as the first secretary of homeland serity. Now hes founder and chairman of ridge global, a private Security Consulting firm based in washington, d. C. Its all about managing the risk to the best you can so you can never be so selfassured that nothing is going to happen. Reporter make no mistake u it will be a big challenge. Several Law Enforcement sources tell nbc bay areas Investigative Unit that at least one person on the terrorist watch list was actually seen inside the perimeter of one security zone at last years super bowl in the phoenix area. And all eyes will be on the lookout for similar suspects this time around. So knowing where our known terrorists are at is critical to us. Do you worry they were scoping it out in phoenix . You never know. Its hard to say how far planning is. Heres the turn. Back when were dealing with al qaeda, would see plans that they are thinking on decade level. The folks were seeing now are thinking on minute level. They are ready to roll at a short period of time. Often times the first indicator that somebody is going to do something bad is they tell someone. According to this National Threat assessment by the fbi and Homeland Security, unsuccessful entry attempts into. Large events have been tried before, including at that soccer stadium in paris. And because of that, this assessment says the most vulnerable targets are in public spaces outside these venues. Thats why Law Enforcement says its imperative for the public to report suspicious activity that they might see. They have set up an Online System where you can just do that, report anonymously. We have a link to that system on our web page. Just go to nbcbayarea. Com. Im stephen stock, nbc bay area news. We have much more ahead on today in the bay. A local High School Team gets the chance to pretend they are in the super bowl at levis stadi stadium. We know the super bowl is getting attention. But another contest going on here i welcome back.
