He says police told him it wasn’t necessary to close the park after the incident.
The CEO is confident in the event’s security and says he doesn’t feel it’s a problem, despite Monday night’s incident.
“We will internally review security procedures,” said Rogerson. “If we feel we have some holes, we’re going to have to fill them.”
More details are expected to be released Tuesday.
