Sparks Fly Without Fireworks Display
Attendees Clash With National Guard!!!
Published
It’s getting hot in Washington, D.C., and we’re not talking about the weather … the streets are heating up as tension rises between citizens and the National Guard.
Our TMZDC is out in the nation’s capital for America’s 250th birthday on Saturday … and they captured this clip of Great American State Fair attendees expressing their distaste for the authorities keeping them out of the event.
If you don’t know … the event was evacuated just a few hours ago due to the intense heat — one of many Freedom 250 events that had to be canceled because of the unbearable weather.
Welp, these attendees didn’t take it so well … butting heads with the National Guard.
Check it out … there’s some booing and chants of “USA, USA” take over the crowd. The servicemembers are keeping people at bay — and it looks mostly nonviolent — but it’s certainly not the moment of togetherness organizers were probably hoping for.
As you may know … America’s Independence Parade was canceled on Saturday due to the extreme weather. President Trump is supposed to speak at the event in about an hour — but, as each minute creeps by, it’s seeming less and less likely he’ll take the stage.
Clearly, those who came from far and wide aren’t happy about the change in plans … and these proverbial fireworks are ready to explode.
