re: Traffic accident in New York results in man being beated by two by fours - insane video

OMG it gets even better -


So…I was told from a law enforcement source. Party A and B are cousins that operate rival asphalt companies. They are Irish “travelers” going around scamming people. They got into it party A pulled a “PIT” maneuver on Party B’s pick up and proceeded to bite their nose off after they beat each other with bats. Why were they fighting…. The world may never know. The one thing we do know is Long Island has Pikeys.

Prosecutors said 19-year-old James O'Connor, of Huntington Station, rammed his Toyota Tundra into another vehicle, causing his vehicle to flip on its side. He was driving with his 12- and 4-year-old siblings in the truck at the time, with the younger sibling not in a car seat.

Prosecutors said the argument began at traffic court, though it's not clear what the fight was about.

The family apparently was still in decent spirits after the brawl, as a criminal complaint stated that James O'Connor told police "once it calmed down, we all ran to Applebee's."

Bail was set at $50,000 cash or $100,000 bond. The O'Connor family is originally from England, with one of those involved having been in New York for as little as two weeks. All had to relinquish their passports as part of the bail conditions.
