Denver, Colorado ( KCNC ) Violence erupted Saturday during an annual pot rally where marijuana is now legal. Gun fire rang out at what was supposed to be a peaceful 420 marijuana rally in denver saturday. Pot smokers ran for cover clearing out Denver's Civic Center Park in fear for their safety.
With the event now over, clean up is underway. Organizers aren't happy it ended so abruptly.
Miguel Lopez says, "disappointed that someone would ruin something like christmas. Like Christmas? Really? Yeah! A lot of people here were celebrating the passing of 64."
Lopez, is overseeing the cleanup process. Though smoking weed in public is still illegal under colorado law, he believes the shooter was trying to ruin his event.
"Somebody had planned that because they knew that this was going on down here."
"The shooting happened here on the east side of the greek amphitheater in front of the thousands of people in attendance. Because of the shooting, what was supposed to be a weekend long event has now ended early, canceled for Sunday."
A day that was supposed to be celebrating peace and the passing of 64 in Colorado, had to be quickly shut down and the people dispersed. Its sad to see that people nowadays need to be watched over at all times like children. Gun restrictions are ridiculous, but weapons are being misused so what is to be done.http://www.kmvt.com/news/regional/Shots-Fired-At-CO-Marijuana-Rally-204031981.html
