GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — A viral video showing hundreds of people partying in Diamond Lake, near the Michigan-Indiana boarder Saturday is garnering much attention in the region.
News 8 said scores of viewers are calling the gathering dangerous and irresponsible, as coronavirus cases continue to surge.
News 8 was also told by one of the party organizers that he’s receiving a lot of threats after the video of the party he posted to Instagram was shared millions of times on the internet. The push-back was so intense that he didn’t want to identify himself by his last name.
Part organizer only identified as "Keith" said, “People hate us...We’re getting a lot of threats and a lot of negative feedback.”
