Wedding Day Clash

UI journalism students witnessed a wedding day clash in Shanghai Sunday.  While visiting the Xintandi area of Shanghai, the student journalists noticed a bride and her wedding party in a heated dispute with a Shanghai police officer.  The officer had given parking tickets to several members of the wedding party for leaving their cars in a no parking zone while wedding pictures were taken.  The bride, groom and several groomsmen argued vehemently with the officer that he should not hand out a ticket to the soon-to-be wedded couple, but the officer refused to budge.  It’s not a huge story, but an unforgettable slice of life in Shanghai.
