MERICA: Woman arrested after crashing 4th of July parade on her tractor then evading police (yes, on her tractor) 😆

Okay, this is amazing.

Imagine being there for this:

I think that mugshot says it all right there.

So apparently this lady was hanging out—you know, just sitting there on her little red tractor—near the staging area for the Rockwall, Texas Fourth of July Parade, claiming she was going to join it. And this did not sit well with parade organizers, since IN NO WAY were they letting this strange woman join their parade.

So they called the police.

Well, when the police arrived it got pretty bad, and please excuse me while I stand over here and chuckle as you watch this video:

Yes, Laurie Bostic, though she was told she wasn't allowed to join the parade, joined it anyway.

And it was, uh…something else.

(Again, imagine being at this parade and watching this all go down.)

Eventually, as you may have noticed in the video, officers were able to force her off the road, "where she drove into a fence" (love that line), and her tractor stalled.

She was arrested and charged with evading arrest, interference with a processional, disorderly conduct, and criminal mischief.

Reports do not indicate whether or not Bostic threw any candy to the crowd.

I sure hope she had a fun ride!
