Not much more about the story yet from what I've heard. Supposedly the suspect was wearing a Rondo jersey. It happened at the very end of the 95-92 game, around 9:45.
I can say one thing: You can't talk about security at the Garden without using air quotes. I've gone in there numerous times with a lipstick-sized spare cell phone battery and cable that SHOULD set off metal detectors. Nada. Keys in pocket. Nada. Cell phone in pocket. Nada. I've given up on the whole charade of emptying out my pockets and holding metallic items in my hand while they wand me.
Open up the lines earlier - one hour may not be enough to screen 17000+ people adequately. Get more security and ticket scanners. Use the side stairwells, and let the "premium members" entrance be EITHER the west OR the east - and use the other one for the general public. If people whine about missing the puck drop/tip off/opening act, let them whine.
