A baby showers should be a time of joy, a gathering where family and friends get together to celebrate the miracle that is human life. It’s also, for some, a chance to watch two clumsy men bloody each other in a street fight.
The Seattle Times reports the incident took place Saturday night, when a huge crowd, including many people who’d been attending a nearby baby shower, gathered around two men fighting in the street.
Police told the Times that the two men were apparently awful at fighting, with one man accidentally punching an apartment’s window and the other somehow breaking a bottle over his own head. Nevertheless, police said “friends and family members attending a nearby get-together, which reportedly was a baby shower, gathered to watch the fight.”
Detective Mark Jamieson wrote in his report that a “large disturbance erupted between the gathered friends and family members over an unknown issue as the two men continued to fight.”
Eventually, order was restored and the two men were taken to the hospital. It’s unclear if the baby shower continued.
