(Oct. 7) - A new video that teaches Coloradans how to spot eight signs of terrorism is narrated by one of the state's biggest sports heroes: John Elway.

The former Denver Broncos quarterback, along with a local news anchor, appear in an eight-minute public service announcement, released Monday, that was co-produced by the nonprofit Center for Empowered Living and Learning (the CELL) and the Governor's Office of Homeland Security, according to KSDK.com.

Elway, who retired from pro football in 1999, goes through eight signs of terrorism, which include surveillance, acquiring supplies, impersonation and rehearsal of terror plots.

The CELL, which is located in Denver, and the Governor's Office of Homeland Security created the PSA over the last four months using a $30,000 federal grant, KSDK.com reported.

"Eight years after 9/11, it's important to remember that the United States is not immune from terror attacks," Governor Bill Ritter said. "The video will help empower citizens with the knowledge they need to protect our communities, our state, our nation."

Ritter and U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano released the video after touring the CELL headquarters on Monday.

"Unfortunately, the world we live in today, everyone has to assume the threat of terrorism is anywhere," Napolitano said. "It's New York City, it could also be Denver."
