WASHINGTON, May 4 (UPI) -- The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has issued an advisory that two suspicious incidents of videotaping transit facilities have occurred in Europe.
The unclassified "public-sector notice" did not describe the incidents or where they occurred, but said they occurred in the past 120 days, The Washington Post reported.
The notice sent to states, domestic law enforcement and freight and passenger rail carriers said the incidents offered "indications of continued terrorist interest in mass-transit systems as targets and potentially useful insight into terrorist surveillance techniques."
"There is not specific or credible intelligence at this time suggesting a threat to U.S.-based mass-transit systems," said department spokesman Russ Knocke. "We regularly share information with our homeland security advisers and law enforcement partners ... to continue to encourage vigilance."
