“]Trejo] pushed people out of the way to get to those people”, Sunland-Tujunga native James Spishak told The Times. ” There were boys it. It could’ve gotten truly dirty. It would’ve always happened if he stayed in the car”.
Spishak claimed Trejo punched him after attempting to break up the fight with him after running over to the audience. ” I love Danny Trejo, I think he’s a great bro, but he needs to know when to say ‘ no,'” Spishak said.
Trejo members did not respond to The Times ‘ request for comment right away. The Sunland/Tujunga/Shadow Hills Rotary Club, which hosted the Fourth of July party, even did not immediately respond.
” Everyone was holding him back”, said Sunland-Tujunga native Arnie Abramyan, who shared sections of the battle on , Instagram. Between him and the persons who threw the water bubble, there were many people. He was really upset. He was yelling, screaming, jealous and was trying to get to the guy who threw the liquid bubble”.
Abramyan, chairman of the Sunland-Tujunga Chamber of Commerce, told The Times that Trejo was participating in the city’s monthly Fourth of July festival for the first time. There was a designated area on the parade route where individuals may utilize Super Soakers and water bubbles, according to Abramyan, whose business Arnieville is one of the event’s partners, but Trejo was not there when he was hit by a water balloon.

He added that he was informed that Trejo lacked the desire to bring costs. Abramyan claimed that after the parade, he and the rest of the Chamber of Commerce held an emergency appointment to figure out how to forgive to Trejo.
