The WCSO said deputies responded to the south end of the county after reports of a chaotic fight outside a home. When they arrived, the scene reportedly turned into a series of short foot chases, but all four suspects—three juveniles and one adult—were quickly detained.
The incident began when two intoxicated teens approached the porch of a vacation home and offered to sell alcohol to the people inside, according to the WCSO. When the offer was declined and the teens were asked to leave, one allegedly started punching a resident in the face.
Family members inside the home rushed to help, but two more individuals, described as friends of the teens, reportedly joined in and began swinging.
