FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (WTVD) -- Fayetteville's annual Doctor Martin Luther King Jr. parade has been put on hold.

Organizers say the event scheduled for this Saturday is being pushed back due to safety concerns.

ABC11 is working to learn what that means.

Last year the parade was postponed due to weather and moved to February.

A makeup date has not been set for this year.
