In an interview with TMZ, Danny gave his side of the story and explained why he reacted how he did, elaborating that the incident really kicked off after someone allegedly screamed that one of the balloons that hit his car was filled with acid. “Honestly, I am so sad. I’m so sad that I behaved the way I behaved,” he said. “I’m so sad that grown men gotta throw water balloons to enjoy a day. I don’t think I would have even got out of the car if somebody hadn’t yelled, ‘It’s acid.’ That’s when I panicked.” “I got out of the car and then — boom — a balloon hit me and I looked up and I see a guy holding a [water balloon]. I go, ‘What in the hell is wrong with you?’” Danny went on to claim that he believed the attack on his car was racially motivated. “I’m just sad that there’s still people from the ‘50s and ‘60s that still feel the same way. No one else was targeted,” he said. But he was also quick to clarify that, in the end, he’s doing just fine. “I’m alright. They couldn’t hurt me,” he said. “I would be embarrassed if I attacked an 80-year-old man and he’s still talking and laughing.” All’s well that ends well! Source link
