Security remains high amid ISIS-K threat against Men's T20 Cricket World Cup in New York, official says

(CNN) — Authorities have increased security ahead of the match between India and Pakistan at the ICC Men's T20 Cricket World Cup in New York, a Nassau County official said, telling CNN that an earlier threat by terror group ISIS-K is considered credible until the contrary has been proven.

Nassau County Police Chief Patrick Ryder previously said about the event received an ISIS-K-related threat in April, followed by more specific threats against Sunday's highly anticipated match at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium on Long Island. The threat refers to a viral video circulating online calling for lone wolf action.

On Sunday morning, officials received an additional threat, Ryder told CNN, describing it as more general. The new threat is not specifically aimed at Sunday's game, but about someone standing behind a sports stadium, Ryder said.

So today with the game we increased our security, worked out and prepared all the investigations from the intelligence side, Ryder said.

Security around the game on Sunday will include guarding the fence line, checking cars and patrolling with horses and drones.

The cricket venue will be the safest place in Nassau County today, Ryder said.

Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman previously said officials worked for months to secure the World Cup, calling it the Super Bowl on steroids. That work included coordinated security efforts with federal partners, including the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security.
