A group of more than 1,000 private citizens gathered in the town of Hilton (NY) on Sunday afternoon to show their support for law enforcement.

According to RochesterFirst.com, riders on motorcycles led a parade of other vehicles which was followed by citizens simply marching on foot through the village of Hilton, which is located just a short distance from the shores of Lake Ontario and the Canadian border.

Event organizers said to local reporters that the show of support was not meant to be a political statement, but simply a demonstration of support for police officers.
