West Indian Day Parade

Share This
A parade marcher pulled an NYPD officer into the celebrations yesterday at the West Indian Day Parade by grinding on him. 

The woman can be seen dressed in a skimpy neon vest and thong when she pulls up to the police man and bends over, dancing seductively. 

The officer is hesitant at first but soon gets in to the spirit and grooves up behind her.

The officer's colleague is also approached but he stumbles when he starts to dance. 
Other marchers gather around the couple, watching them 'wine' and one flaps a towel at the pair to cool them down after their dirty dancing. 

The officer was guarding the route at New York's annual West Indian Day Parade yesterday. 
NYPD police surrounded the entirety of the two mile route during yesterday's celebrations
Despite violence in previous years, this year there was only one firearm found with no major incidents
Attendants were searched for alcohol at 13 separate access points and bags were prohibited
Armed officers were stationed across Brooklyn and the NYPD said it was the largest operation this year
The march has, in the past, seen high levels of violence which were avoided this year due to community and police co operation and tighter security restrictions.  

Attendants were screened for weapons and alcohol at 13 separate entry points and several thousand armed officers were stationed across Brooklyn. 

Police confiscated a gun but there were no violent incidents. 
Despite bad weather, large groups of revelers took part in the West Indian Day Parade celebrations yesterday. The annual celebration of Caribbean culture is one of the largest
Police were stationed along the two mile radius with officers, barriers and NYPD patrol cars blocking the route. Police said that one gun was confiscated but there were no major incidents

The J'Ouvert part of the parade was held from 6am until 11am and features participants wearing dark costumes in memory of the original Caribbean incarnation of the celebration
During J'Ouvert participants douse themselves in motor oil or wear elaborate costumes with horns
The New York Police Department said this was their largest security operation all year. 

'There will literally be a cop everywhere doing what they do best, keeping neighborhoods safe,' Chief of the NYPD, Terence Monahan, said at a press conference on Wednesday. 

The day is split into two parts each year. The J'Ouvert, or daybreak parade, began at 6am and finished at 11am for the West Indian Day Parade at noon. 
J'Ouvert is still celebrated in parts of the Caribbean but it is most commonly seen among expat communities
The annual J'ouvert event is linked to a tradition found in many Caribbean nations and is now related to Carnival celebrations
Costumes for J'Ouvert can be wild and dark imaginings with some people wearing helmets with thick horns on them and some dousing themselves in motor oil.  

The perimeter of the two mile route was surrounded by NYPD cars and blockers and cameras were set up along the parade to notify officers of any potential skirmishes. 
This is the second year that police worked with 'violence interrupters,' members of the community who aim to stop gang related issues from erupting before it's too late.

Though this was a safe West Indian Day Parade by most accounts, videos have surfaced of revelers dancing on top of NYPD police cars during the celebration. 
Participants can be seen spraying each other with baby powder during the celebrations
A man with a large python can be seen aboard a truck full of soft drinks during the celebrations
Women dressed in elaborate costumes can be seen as they walk along the parade route
At the start of the video, a young woman can be seen looking towards the camera with what looks like a bottle of alcohol in her hand. Alcohol was banned from the event and police were confiscating any they found. 

However, the police are not on hand to assist as number of marchers are dancing on the roof, the bonnet and the boot of the patrol car.

A second video shows a woman doing the splits and gyrating across the floor to the beat of the music before hoisting herself up by the bottom. 

The men around her wave Caribbean flags at her to cool her down. 

The NYPD have been accused in the past of being too lenient on occasion. In July this year, videos surfaced of teenagers dousing New York cops with buckets of water as they did their jobs. 

The officers didn't arrest the teens even though the action was technically an assault.
