A wild brawl among groups of teens on a Long Island boardwalk was captured on video, and now it is leading to calls for stepped up police patrols ahead of the summer season
"They got into a verbal argument that wound up being turned into a physical altercation. You know, it's unfortunate," said Ron Walsh, the acting city manager and police commissioner for Long Beach.
"We ended up going down there. There was some construction workers to help me break it up, and the kids just dispersed in one everywhere," said owner Brian Braddish."I would assume that someone was hit with an object. I didn't actually see it, but I'm looking to get it like a police presence up here."
"I only saw two cops today and I've been here since 9:00 a.m., and we should have more police here considering the money that we pay for here," said Long Beach resident Roberta D'Amore. Police increased their presence on the boardwalk Friday. The department usually increases patrols after Memorial Day — generally when beach crowds start getting larger as summer begins — but they're starting early this year and with more force.
