In the United States, the last Sunday of June is celebrated as “Gay Pride Day”. Pride Month honours the long fight for civil rights and the ongoing quest for equality for the LGBTQ community. It also celebrates the achievements of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer individuals.

However, the NYC Pride celebrations turned into a free-for-all wrestling match. Onlookers gathered to witness the chaos, with many filming the violent scenes in Lower Manhattan, reported the Daily Mail.
