Police set detailed security plan for Columbus Pride Festival

Several streets downtown were barricaded off Thursday by orange cones and metal signs as people prepare for the Columbus Pride Festival and Parade. Columbus Police expect 500,000 people to attend this weekend's events which means a need for heightened security and police presence."We take a look at how big it is, how many days it goes over," said Deputy Chief Michael Woods with the Columbus Police Department. "We want to make sure that we don't over respond but we want to respond appropriately."
