More than 4,000 maskless fans pack stands at North Carolina raceway after sheriff refused to enforce state's coronavirus lockdown orders on same day the state saw highest increase in infections
2020-05-26
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • The alarming scenes at Ace Speedway, in Alamance County, came just 24 hours after Sheriff Terry Johnson said he would not interfere with the event

  • The Sheriff Governor Roy Cooper’s stay-at-home orders ‘unconstitutional’

  • As many as 4,000 people were believed to have attended the event on Saturday, and some 2,500 the night before

  • Ace Speedway co-owner Jason Turner said social distancing was recommended by organizers but was not enforced

  • He also said very few patrons appeared to be wearing facemasks or any other kind of personal protective equipment

  • North Carolina has suffered 784 coronavirus-related deaths as of Monday, and currently has more than 23,000 confirmed cases

  • But dozens of patrons, many of whom travelled from out-of-state to attend the event, said they’re refusing to live in fear

#3  Neither Gov. Cooper nor the Alamance County Sheriff's Department has returned a DailyMail.com request for comment.

Love the headlining; yeah they hit the track about 1:00 and by 4:00, boom, huge increase in cases.
