Kirk memorial in Arizona to have Super Bowl-level security [View all]
The upcoming memorial honoring the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk in Arizona will have Super Bowl-level security, according to officials familiar with the matter.
The memorial for Kirk, who was killed while speaking at a college event in Utah last week, will be held at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Ariz., where the NFL’s Arizona Cardinals play, on Sunday.
“The U.S. Secret Service has been designated as the Federal Coordinator for this effort. Our teams are already on the ground in Phoenix and Glendale, working side-by-side with state, local, and federal partners,” special agent in charge of Secret Service’s Phoenix field office, William Mack, said Thursday in a statement to The Hill’s sister network, NewsNation. “Together, we are fully committed to ensuring that these solemn events receive the comprehensive protection and support they require.”
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has designated the forthcoming funeral and memorial service a “Special Event Assessment Rating (SEAR) Level 1 event,” a senior DHS official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said on Thursday.
