Brawl erupts over Easter candy

Staff report

Police aren't sure whether Walmart's prices were so good or if there was a shortage of chocolate rabbits.

Whatever the reason, seven women ended up in a brawl in the Easter basket aisle Saturday evening.

Candy eggs, rabbits and Peeps flew through the air in an unlikely Easter exchange.

Property damage, primarily to candy and Easter decorations, totalled nearly $800.

Salisbury Police responded to the Walmart at 323 Arlington St. around 7 p.m. Saturday.

The five officers separated the women into two groups — with each claiming the other group started the fight.

Unable to figure out who initiated the brawl, officers decided to charge all of those involved in the incident with public affray.


Will the guilty parties, please raise their hands?

:laugh:

    I love the stories of bizarre and weird. A few weeks ago the paper reported a story out of PA...(the town where they do the groundhog every year) about a man arrested for being drunk in public. Apparently he was in the middle of the highway trying to give mouth-to-mouth to an opossum that had obviously been dead for quite some time. Yuck!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Look, I'm not saying I was right or wrong, but I meant it when I told that woman I'd kill for some chocolate right now..... so I blame her for not listening to my warning..... :grumble:
