FOP wants concealed weapons allowed for off-duty officers at EverBank Field, NFL stadiums

The Fraternal Order of Police wants the NFL to allow off-duty officers to carry weapons at NFL games.

After the terrorist attacks in Paris, the National FOP president sent a letter to the NFL, calling for the league to change a rule that bars off-duty police from bringing weapons to games.

"It could easily happen. It is just a matter of a person having the motive and the time," Jaguars fan Cameron Robbins told Times-Union news partner First Coast News.

During the first Jaguars game after the attacks in Paris, fans saw bomb sniffing dogs and dozens of officers posted on every corner.
