Video shows driver careening through Portland’s Grand Floral Parade

Newly obtained dashcam footage shows a Portland man plowing past blockades and nearly hitting several people including small children along the Rose Festival’s Grand Floral parade route in June. Prosecutors submitted the dramatic video, taken from inside Sidney Mecham’s Chevy Avalanche, as evidence during an August preventative detention hearing. It shows three different angles of what happened that day. Mecham, 42, pleaded not guilty to 38 counts, including felony unlawful use of a weapon and attempting to elude an officer. He's currently being held in the Multnomah County Inverness Jail. There's never a psychotic gun nut looking to kill people around when you need one.

Dude was jammin along.  Blame the music.

Can't they just hold Parade's at school tracks and fields and stadiums instead of blocking traffic?
