WATCH: Terror At Wisconsin Christmas Parade As Car Speeds Into The Crowd

A Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin took a tragic turn when a car sped into the crowd and gunshots were fired.

Videos of the incident began circulating on social media over the weekend that showed the red SUV plowing into the crowd at the parade. Gunshots could be heard ringing out from the car.

“As we were walking back in between the buildings, we saw an SUV crossover, just put the pedal to the metal and just zooming full speed along the parade route. And then we heard a loud bang, and just deafening cries and screams from people who were struck by the vehicle,” Angelito Tenorio, an eyewitness of the incident, said.

“And then, and then we saw people running away or stopping crying, and there, there are people on the ground who looked like they’d been hit by the vehicle,” Tenorio added.

Right in front of my family, this man drives through the parade hitting as many people as possible while shooting out the window. He ran over several elderly women who were dancing in the parade and many others please pray for everyone in Waukesha
