Not so Proud: Stampedes at Pride events in NYC and San Francisco after revelers mistake fireworks and a brawl for shootings

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]

The two largest Pride parades in the country - New York City and San Francisco - were interrupted on Sunday by a panicked crowd mistakenly hearing gunfire

In Manhattan, revelers celebrating in Washington Square Park scattered after hearing bangs, which NYPD confirmed were fireworks

In San Francisco, police said they responded to reports of a shooting near Civic Center but were unable to locate any shooting or victims

The Pride celebrations come amid a moment of deep tension nationwide, with Friday's ruling overturning Roe v Wade sparking protests across the country

In Arizona protesters tried to break into the Senate, and in Iowa a man drove his truck through a crowd of protesters; ugly scenes also unfolded in Los Angeles
