Just three days after opening the 2023 season, the Frisco Fair has closed its doors with the city of Frisco citing several "safety concerns."
In a statement, the City of Frisco specifically referenced as "assessment of events occurring at the Frisco Fair on April 29 which required the response of 26 officers."
According to Local Profile, several calls were made to Frisco police last Saturday reporting disruptive behavior, arguments, fights, and even gunshots. It took the 26 officers approximately two hours to resolve the complaints.
Several videos then began making the rounds on social media showing the chaos over the weekend.
