It does appear to be a domestic situation as Kyle mentioned. Our heart goes out to the families involved and believe that this is a very isolated incident. We believe that everyone will feel safe during their stay in Atlanta. I think that those that have come here for Championship's since 2004 will attest to that.

Yes Atlanta in the areas that FIRST students are usually around has been shown to be very safe and well monitored by the Atlanta Police Department This will be my 3rd time in Atlanta with FIRST and MOE's 4th and I have not heard of one problem with security while at the Championship event.
It is very sad for the individuals involved but I believe that this will have little to no effect on the FIRST event in 9 days from now and everyone will have a great and safe experence.
