Terror plot: State leaders to discuss R.I. reaction

CRANSTON -- State officials plan to hold a press conference this afternoon to react to news of a major terrorist plot that was apparently thwarted in England.

Governor Carcieri is scheduled to appear at 2:30 p.m. with Lt. Col. Robert T. Bray, adjutant general of the Rhode Island National Guard, at the Rhode Island Emergency Management Agency headquarters in Cranston.

The governor held a conference call at noon with representatives from all of Rhode Island's cities and towns to discuss the state's reaction.
