Holiday Spirit Moves Florida Cops To Dance At Mall

AVENTURA, FL — Two Florida police officers drew boos when they appeared to be trying to disperse a dancing flash mob at a suburban Miami shopping center this week.

But boos turned to cheers when Aventura Officers Chris Gatti and Manny Gonzalez instead broke out the holiday spirit and joined in the well-choreographed routine at Aventura Mall.
