Gas station brawl draws 200-strong crowd
Lee County Sheriff's deputy Erik Hurd said the altercation began when a group of arguing females approached a car at the gas station, the Fort Myers (Fla.) News-Press reported Tuesday.
Hurd said he was told by a 16-year-old girl who was in the car with her cousin and her cousin's boyfriend that the group appeared to be arguing over a stolen pack of cigarettes, but the details were unclear.
The 16-year-old said the occupants of the car attempted to intervene in the argument, but the group turned on them and beat the car with various blunt objects, Hurd said. An estimated 200 people gathered to watch the incident.
Gloria Hood, 20, Cherrelle Jones, 22, Tamra Harris, 23 and Whitley Rodriguez, 20, were all charged with aggravated assault with intent to commit a felony and criminal mischief by damaging property.
A 16-year-old male was charged with carrying a concealed weapon after Hurd found a gun in his car.
There were no serious injuries resulting from the fight.
