A ceremony to celebrate an individual’s life turned into a massive brawl and left at least one Chicago police officer bloodied and bruised.
According to CBS Chicago, the service was taking place at the Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church in West Garfield Park. Police were called around 12:30 p.m. after a fight broke out inside the church.
Police have not stated what caused the fight.
As more officers arrived, they were able to subdue and arrest three people and clear the remaining crowd out.
Police have not released the list of charges or the conditions of the officer, seen bleeding from his head in a viral Facebook video.
