Security tightened after Spanish arrests near key US sites
California authorities boosted patrols near San Francisco and cordoned off Disneyland and Universal Studios after reports that Spanish police seized video tapes and imagery of these sites from suspected al Qaida operatives. CHP canvassed local agencies while Gov. Davis adviser George Vinson called the move significant and tied to the source. Investigators had found similar materials previously, though not showing California locations.
