Skateboarders Get Wild In Detroit Streets

Get stoked, Detroit skaters! The city has been picked as the site of the ninth annual Wild in the Streets, a national skating event on Thursday, international Go Skateboarding Day.

"This a celebration," said Mark Waters, a longtime California skater who's helping organize the event. "There's nothing like skating through the streets with a thousand people. It empowers kids."
