I think there's more of this in the air than in earlier decades, angry folks just waiting for an excuse to stomp somebody. I can't recall if that's one of the symptoms Gibbon deals with -- so much today relates to the fall of empire.
Seattle parking garage melee involves 50 people
A dispute over who would be the first to exit a downtown Seattle parking garage early Saturday morning escalated into a 50-person melee and ended with one woman beaten, another stabbed in the abdomen, and a man arrested for assault, according to police.
Two separate groups, one of men and one of women, had left the restaurant and got into an argument about who would be first to exit the lot, Witt said.
The women, in one car, got in front. One of the men got out of another car and started an argument with the women. The man pulled one of the women out of the car and "began stomping on her," Witt said.
At that point, onlookers got involved and the scene turned into a "free for all, a huge melee," Witt said. Responding officers estimated 50 people were involved.
