A caption on Tuesday about the 101st Fourth of July parade in Ridgewood, N.J., misidentified the boy shown dressing up to play the role of President Obama and misspelled the given name of the boy’s father, shown helping him. The boy is Aaron Ly, 9 — not his brother Baba, 8, who is partially shown at the bottom right, and who shared the role. Their father is Mamadou Ly, not Amadou. And because of an editing error, a caption in some editions for additional pictures of Fourth of July celebrations referred incorrectly to the Franklin Band, which performed at the Ridgewood parade. The band is from Franklin, N.J., not Ridgewood, and it is not affiliated with Benjamin Franklin Middle School.
