Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Boston Tea party trends after group of black men fought for black security guard after being attacked by white men at Montgomery Riverfront..
Several people were taken into custody Saturday night after a fight broke out at Montgomery’s Riverfront Park in Alabama, authorities said.
The Montgomery Police Department responded to a disturbance at the 200 block of Coosa Street in Montgomery, Alabama, at 7 p.m. after a large group of people were fighting. Several people were detained, police said.
“In the face of adversity, Aaren selflessly came to the rescue of a fellow colleague, showcasing courage beyond his years,” the statement from Lashea read.
Efforts to reach Lashea for additional comment were not immediately successful on Sunday.
The statement thanked the public for the “outpouring of love and support,” saying that it was a reminder “we can create positive change and uplift one another.”
One short video, posted on social media by Josh Moon of the Alabama Political Reporter, shows several white people fighting a single Black man, who according to Jasmine Williams of WSFA is a dock worker.
The only audio heard is from witnesses yelling, but it appears to begin with an argument between the Black man and one of the white men. Another white man rushes and hits the Black man, who backs up and tosses his hat into the air. Then the fight begins in earnest, and several white people begin hitting the Black man.
The dock worker and the man who struck him engaged in a one-on-one shoving match for a moment before the first white man placed a hand on the Black man in an apparent effort to separate the two.
A video shows someone jump off the riverboat, swimming to the dock to join in.
The scene of him swimming to the shore has attracted widespread attention, even from comedian Roy Wood Jr.
