Arrest warrants have been issued in connection with a riverfront brawl in Alabama's capital that gained national attention. Video footage showed a group of White people assaulting a Black riverboat worker, leading to a large-scale fight. The Montgomery Police Department has currently issued four active warrants, with the possibility of more being issued as additional footage is reviewed. Several individuals have been detained, and charges are pending.
Major Saba Coleman of the Montgomery Police Department said there are currently four active warrants and more could be issued after authorities review more footage. Police said Sunday that several people were detained and charges are pending.
A White man shoved and punched the Black crew member, according to the video taken by a riverboat passenger and published by WSFA. The conflict escalated when several White people joined in on attacking the Black crew member. A separate video shows that several Black passengers then confronted the pontoon boat group after the riverboat docked, sparking another brawl that was largely split along racial lines.
Reed said in a statement Sunday that Montgomery police acted “swiftly to detain several reckless individuals for attacking a man who was doing his job.”
