Two hundred teens erupted into a sprawling fistfight early Sunday at Virginia skating rink, and police in Roanoke say they’re still trying to figure out what started it, reports WSLS Read more here: LINK

However, two witnesses told TV station WFXR “a song came on that stirred local gang tension” in a crowd that included youths as young as 13. The song wasn’t identified, but “gang signs soon led to 95 percent of the room” hitting each other, the station said. Read more here: LINK

Roanoke Police say they were called about 12:30 a.m. Sunday to northern Roanoke’s Star City Skate Center, “and found close to 200 individuals, both juveniles and adults, involved in the fight,” reported WDBJ. Read more here: LINK

All juveniles up in the fighting “were turned over to their parents or caretakers” by police, reported the Roanoke Times. Media outlets did not report anyone was injured during the brawling Read more here: LINK

The song was Overdose by Youngboy, a BR rapper. ID'ed it last night from a different article where they interviewed somebody who was there.


Edit: LINK

quote:

Nicholas, 14, said he and Marques were grabbing a slice of pizza when a song came on that was talking about gangs. The boys said the song was Overdose, by YoungBoy Never Broke Again.

Nicholas said people started throwing up gang signs and that was where things took a turn for the worse.

this is where you pull out an assault rifle and leave no one left alive, and the world will be a better place for it.

because every one of those wastes of oxygen, every one, will commit crimes their whole lives until someone stops them with a bullet, its better it happens now then after a 30 year live of crime

Hitler thought mass murder was for the betterment of society as well.

He'll be dead in another year or two. The average lifespan for a BR rapper is about 22.

The “1812 Overture” doesn’t sit well with Francophiles.

Yeah, prolly Tchaikovsky.

Who among us hasn't experienced this when playing Pantera's "Walk"?

You simply can’t put large numbers of them and Anglophiles in the same skating rink, especially in Virginia.

What was the song? Maybe a Rogers and Hammerstein hit? Gilbert and Sullivan?


Perhaps it was Kenny Rogers’ “Islands in the Stream.”


That always makes me want to throw down
