Please provide any records that are readily available at no cost. If the cost of fulfilling this request exceeds $20, please notify me before processing the records. As similar records have been previously produced for news organizations, the costs associated with providing these records should be minimal or waived. The records I am requesting pertain to incidents at Hard Rock Stadium on July 14th, 2024. Given that these records have already been released to media outlets, I expect that the retrieval and distribution of these documents will not incur significant expenses. Please ensure that any charges are clearly justified. Thank you for your cooperation and attention to this request.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 business days.

Sincerely,
