C'mon people I was there, someone popped a balloon, a few kids began to run and before you knew everybody started running. The police did overreact but considering the type of event and the importance of the event they were just playing it safe.

I wish I could get this sort of response in my neighborhood. I guess the moral of the story is not to pop any balloons near downtown... http://www.nbc4.tv/news/6952502/detail.html
