The FBI Richmond Field Office is advising residents about an upcoming training exercise that will take place early next week near their headquarters office in Richmond.

This exercise is not being conducted in response to any ongoing world events, nor is there a known danger to the public related to this exercise; however, the public can expect to see helicopters and tactically trained personnel in the area during this exercise.

Do not be alarmed by this training, nor the presence of additional personnel.  This exercise will not pose risks to area residents, nor should it disrupt commuters in any fashion.

Please note - this training is not open to the public or to the media.
