Plantation, Florida – Officials are implementing a new security protocol after a shooting incident scared people attending the Piper-Fort Lauderdale high school football game on Sept. 30.
On Friday night before the Plantation vs. Piper game, everyone was screened with handheld metal detectors.
According to the new protocol backpacks and purses were not allowed.
