(PHILADELPHIA DAILY NEWS) Philadelphia police said the melee was not only between guests from the same wedding party but also between guests from two separate wedding parties. Both feuds started in the hotel bar, police said.
“There was an issue with a lot of alcohol fueling the fight,” said police spokesman Lt. Ray Evers.
Two summary citations for disorderly conduct were issued to men in their late 20s, Evers said. A third man – the one whom police hit with a baton in the video – remains behind bars. Police are deciding whether to charge him with assault on an officer and Evers said, “It’s definitely leaning that way.”
A man died of heart attack after an all-out brawl broke out at a Society Hill wedding early this morning, and part of the melee was caught on video.
