Edward Ramirez of the West Hollywood Sheriff’s Station said after the parade.
The three-hour parade went smoothly and without incident, Lt. Los Angeles County sheriff’s officials said in a statement that the department, which patrols West Hollywood, was in “a heightened state of situational awareness” and would remain vigilant. While many parade-goers were wary in light of recent events, several said they felt even more committed to the cause of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights.
