Scotland Tartan Army's traffic cone tradition disrupted by Miami police
Summary

Miami police intervened as Scotland fans attempted their tradition of placing traffic cones on statues before a World Cup match against Brazil at Hard Rock Stadium, scheduled for today. This follows a successful showing in Boston where fans were praised for their behavior. Videos on social media capture a fan being stopped by police during the act. In contrast to Boston, where authorities were more lenient, Miami's law enforcement took a stricter approach. The Tartan Army plans to participate in a Marlins game against the Texas Rangers later today, where they will meet at a local restaurant and march to the stadium with bagpipers and the Marlins mascot.
