Policing Bethpage: Bikes, Beers, and POTUS

Security at Bethpage Black is tight, with hundreds of officers covering the Ryder Cup on foot, carts, and bikes. Lt. Kory Barney, a 20-year veteran, said: “With POTUS here, adrenaline is pumping.” Bike patrols weave through crowds scanning for trouble—overserved fans, stray bags—while still fielding merch and shuttle questions. Mission: serve, protect, and keep order.
