Several Krewe of Carrollton riders were removed from a float Sunday after intentionally throwing beads in “an aggressive manner” at New Orleans Police Department officers along the route, police said.
NOPD spokesperson Jonathan Morris said the riders were removed from float No. 10, Carrollton Boots, and the parade at around 4 p.m., leaving the float noticeably vacant for the remainder of the procession.
Morris did not say how many riders were removed or whether they will be cited.
Krewe of Carrollton Capt. Wayne Lee could not immediately be reached for comment…
