Chicago suburb forced to cancel armed forces carnival after flash mob of 400 teens causes chaos

Blaze

An armed forces carnival that was scheduled for Sunday was canceled by officials in a Chicago suburb after a flash mob of hundreds of teens caused chaos at the event on Saturday.

The Village of Tinley Park in Illinois announced that the final day of the Armed Forces Weekend Carnival scheduled for Sunday had been canceled “due to safety concerns stemming from a flash mob incident at Saturday’s event.”

“Police said a group of about 400 teenagers who were responding to a call on social media to form a flash mob gathered at the carnival Saturday evening and began running through the parking lot and fighting with each other in an attempt to cause chaos and disrupt the event,” Tinley Park government officials said in a statement.

A police officer was injured attempting to break up a fight and was treated at a local hospital before being released.

Authorities decided to cancel Sunday’s festivities after learning that another flash mob was being planned for Sunday’s carnival. more

  1. ^ it was a carnival, Brad, you know, with bearded ladies and trannies and mutants and shrunken heads and various rides and games and maybe even some cotton candy – all operated by Joe’s military.

  2. Being west of I-57, Tinley Park has been about the last south suburb to “change” demographics.
    If you look at the Chicago Southland (suburbs), the economic collapse/failure of each is obvious.

    Looks like that’s the end of Tinley Park.

  3. That is how the Minnesota State Fair ends each and every night in late August. And it gets earlier and earlier closed each year. Same as happened with St. Paul’s Taste of Minnesota that finally ended because of the feral youths.

  4. That wouldn’t have happened at our Armed Forces Lilac Festival parade in downtown Spokane Saturday night. We don’t have enough minorities around here to form a flash mob like that. The Air Force from Fairchild AFB and our local cops wouldn’t have put up with that kind of shit.

  5. Damned Amish!
    Chicago just can’t have anything nice!

    Never should have let those bearded, straw-hat-wearing bastids into the country!

  6. Should have announced over the PA, “TARGET RICH ENVIRONMENT! FREE FIRE! FREE FIRE! FREE FIRE!”
    And then just have the po-po stand back and let the military have at it.

  7. Uncle Remus (RIP) (anyone else remember “Woodpile Report”?) always said, “Stay away from crowds”.
    Words to live by.
