A Saturday night melee along a river in Montgomery, Alabama that exploded after a group of white boaters reportedly challenged a Black dock worker has led to several arrests, according to authorities.
The Montgomery Police Department said that “several” people had been detained after the brawl broke out at Riverfront Park around 7 p.m. Police confirmed toon Sunday afternoon that there were four active warrants in the case, with more possibly to come as the department’s investigation continues.
As the group’s shoving match turns into an attack on the man, onlookers can be heard screaming, with one watching from the river yelling, “Y’all help that brother!” Several other people then rush in to join the fight, including a Black man who jumps into the water from a boat and swims to the dock.
