市长Nancy Rotering在新闻发布会上也就此事做出回应。
“今天上午10点14分,我们的社区出现了一起非常严重的暴力案件,我们所有人都为之震撼。
“在这个毁灭性的时刻,我们的心与受害者家属同在。”
据媒体现场报道,早晨枪声响起后,数百名游行者从原本的游行路线上逃离,有人身上明显带血,个人财物丢了一地。。。
下午的时候,这个原本充满喜庆氛围的街道已经被恐惧代替,大批警察正在对这里重重封锁。

Gina Troiani就是目击者之一。
当时她正准备和儿子一起准备走上游行路线,结果听到了一声像是烟花一样的声音,紧接着人群开始骚乱,她这才意识到是有人开枪!
“我们只能开始朝着反方向奔跑。。。”
更加令人痛心的是,这场游行活动专门鼓励儿童骑着自行车和宠物一起参与游行,现场有幸队伍中有不少孩子,他们都被突发的意外吓得惊声尖叫!
“有人与家人失散慌忙寻找,有人紧急离开花车,抓着孩子开始逃跑。。。。”
“我吓坏了,真的是太可悲了。。。”
好好的节日庆祝变成血腥屠杀的悲剧,实在是让人难过。
