NOPD retracts federal-target claim in Thoth parade incident

The New Orleans Police Department issued a correction about the Krewe of Thoth incident, clarifying that riders on Float 32 were throwing items aggressively at a civilian paradegoer holding an anti-ICE sign, not at federal agents. The investigation is ongoing, no arrests have been made, and the NOPD is coordinating with the Krewe of Thoth. City leaders reiterate that aggressive behavior at parades will not be tolerated.
