Protesters glued themselves to the parade route.

The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade was temporarily halted when a group of about 30 pro-Palestinian protesters ran into the street and apparently glued themselves to the pavement of the parade route in New York City.

The protesters were demonstrating along Sixth Avenue when a handful of them jumped the barricades and ran into the street along 49th Street.

People demonstrate during the 97th Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, in Manhattan, New York City, Nov. 23, 2023.

In videos posted online, protesters can be seen demonstrating on Sixth Avenue near 34th Street.

President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden called into the parade to give their thanks and urged Americans to "come together.".

The first Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade took place in 1927. »
