A concerning incident occurred during a Marines celebration in California, where artillery shrapnel struck vehicles on a highway. The event, which was attended by California Governor Gavin Newsom, was meant to honor the Marine Corps, but it took an unexpected turn when the shrapnel hit several vehicles on the freeway. Despite White House officials claiming the area was safe, Governor Newsom had decided to shut down the freeway as a precautionary measure.
