After massive chimpouts at the Florida State Fair, the county sheriff is asking local black leaders to step in and tell their people to stop acting like animals.
The fair was literally shut down by deputies on Friday after “unprecedented incidents of violence and disorder” made the whole place a threat to public safety.
From Fox 13:
Deputies say dozens if not hundreds of teens were involved in a “wilding” event at the fair’s opening night, fighting with each other while assaulting and robbing other fairgoers. The chaos got so bad that the 200 deputies on hand could not contain it, Sheriff David Gee wrote.
Ninety-nine people were ejected, and 12 were arrested.
“The unruliness and misbehavior overwhelmed the resources and jeopardized the safety of everyone at the fair,” Gee insisted in a letter to several African-American leaders.
Copies of Gee’s plea for help were sent to James Cole, president of the Sheriff’s Black Advisory Council; Dr. Carolyn Collins, president of the Hillsborough NAACP; and Dr. James Favorite, pastor of Beulah Baptist Church.
“The overwhelming number of youth and young adults arrested or ejected from the midway for misconduct were African-American,” Gee explained, “and I recognize the responsibility to address this issue and ensure the circumstances are not repeated in the future.”
The sheriff’s office came under scrutiny for its response after one of the ejected teens was hit and killed while trying to cross neighboring Interstate 4.
FOX 13’s Ken Suarez spoke with fair officials who told him that kids 17 and under will not be allowed in the fair without an adult after 7 p.m.
Here is the letter the Sheriff sent to the blacks.
