Video of violent BG brawl makes rounds on web

BOWLING GREEN, Ohio -

It's the violent brawl that's making its rounds on the internet. The video is generating thousands of views, and now Bowling Green police are asking the public to help piece together the events leading up to the fight.

Video of a late night brawl in the parking lot of a Circle K convenience store in Bowling Green is circulating on the internet.

Bowling Green Police Lieutenant Brad Biller says the incident happened a few weeks ago. He says there was plenty of activity that night, bringing out the crowds.

"That night was the night leading up to the Black Swamp Festival," says Lt. Biller. "There was a home football game at the university. Two groups of people were drawn to each other, and that led to a physical altercation."

One particular hit that leaves one person knocked out is generating all the buzz.

"That victim may as well have been in the initial altercation," says Lt. Biller. "At this point, we could consider him an uncharged suspect as much as we could consider him a victim."

Lt. Biller says police had their hands full that night, tending to another fight at a nearby bar. He says, by the time police arrived on scene at the Circle K, the fight was over

"At this point, we can't say with certainty who started what, who said what to who," he says. "Anytime you have a large concentration of people and consumption of alcohol in a place and have people with different thoughts on different things and you end up with some level of altercation."

Officials are asking anyone with information about the fight to call Bowling Green police at 419-352-2571.
