Waterfight turns violent
WTF turned up to a waterfight with knives, now they where just planning on some good water based fun and hi-jinks
London Water Fight Turns Violent - Yahoo! News UK
By Sky News SkyNews - Thursday, July 31 01:31 pmNine men have been arrested after a water fight organised through Facebook turned violent.
Police had to call in backup when more than 200 young people - some of whom were carrying knives - turned on them in Hyde Park, central London.
One man was shot with a stun gun when he set his pitbull-style dog on an officer.
And three children, aged between five and 12, were thrown off their horses after the animals were spooked by the fight - which lasted about an hour.
Paramedics took all three to hospital for injuries including suspected broken bones and concussion.
What was meant to be a lighthearted chance to cool off in the sun yesterday turned sour as visitors in the park reported seeing men "flashing" their weapons.
Dogs were used to break up troublemakers and arrests were made for offences including attacking police, public disorder, affray and handling stolen goods.
The organised water fight was similar to the event attended by teenager Frederick Moody-Boateng at Holland Park before he was stabbed to death two weeks ago.
Scotland Yard said police officers were prepared for the water fight after it was advertised in online chatrooms.
But a spokesman said the event turned nasty as 250 "high spirited" young people gathered in the park.
Police set up a search area in Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens to comb participants for weapons.
But a large number of people became hostile and violence erupted for almost an hour as officers dispersed the crowd.

I gather the police are interested in meeting him.
How long's it gonna be before someone grasses him up.
Tizer or no tizer - you don't slap a woman

There needed to be a switft and decisive response to having red drink thrown on whote clothes but slapping her wasnt it, I would have got the bottled and drenched her with it, not used his strength advantage to hurt her.
Hopefully he wont get to live down hitting a girl.
nb, the only time when it is acceptable to hit a woman is when she has injured your male parts, then she dies....

They may have already been battling though pic doesn't show what went on before it.
that said, i would probably have been one of those arrested if i'd seen that. I'd have kicked him one in the spuds. no excuse for hitting a lass like that.
