    Police Commissioner Ray Kelly says crews will try to detect a nuclear device on a vessel headed into the harbor.
    The crews will use equipment received from federal authorities to combat terrorism. The nuclear device used is harmless.

    The exercise will last about six hours. More than 100 people will be involved.

    The exercise is among the largest collaborations among agencies in the area, including police from Perth Amboy, N.J.

    This exercise is a waste of time and tax dollars, proves nothing. In 2 years Iran will be able to launch a nuclear missile from a ship off our shore.
