Indianapolis, Ind. (WTHI) - Growing crowds in Indianapolis means growing security measures for the Super Bowl host city.

With as many as 200,000 people moving through the Super Bowl Village each day, security has been a constant concern.

More than 1,000 law enforcement officials are inside the city.

Indianapolis officials say there is more than enough police and emergency personnel on staff to handle the event and they have emergency plans in place.

Frank Straub, with the Indianapolis Department of Public Safety says, "We have the ability to move people off to the sides if need be. We've created corridors down the sides of the streets where we can easily have public safety personnel."

Straub say the biggest problem this week has been lost children.

More than 37 kids have been separated from their parents but all were found quickly.
