Bowler bashed in the head with ball during 7-person brawl at Miami alley: ‘Thrown left and right’
More like a brawling alley.
An angry bowler launched a bowling ball and struck a woman directly in the head during an intense multi-person fight inside a downtown Miami alley early Tuesday morning.
Wild video captured the extremely reckless brawl which involved at least seven people in front of concerned bystanders at the Lucky Strike Miami bowling alley.
The fight took place at around 12:45 a.m. as several objects and drinks were thrown in the air from several different people, according to video posted to social media by “ONLY in Dade.”
The altercation turned violent when multiple bowling balls were grabbed from the return system and chucked at the other brawlers.
“Bowling balls were being thrown left and right,” Miami Police spokesperson Michael Vega told WSVN. “They were not only fighting, bowling balls were being thrown.”
At one point, two women wrestled over one ball before the shorter of the two broke free and ran toward another person.
The other woman then grabs another ball and throws it at the first fighter, striking her on the side of her head and knocking her to the floor.
“What’s crazy is that two groups would get into an argument so heated,” said Vega.
The suspected thrower then picks up another ball and hurls it at the rest of the crowd before someone finally grabs her and pushes her away from the awaiting projectiles.
Both parties in the fight had fled the scene by the time police officers arrived to the bowling alley, according to the outlet.
Police are now searching for both women as they may be facing criminal facing charges.
“We are trying to locate both the victim and the suspect in this case and they can both be facing charges,” Vega added. “Number one, they vandalized the establishment, so they gonna be looking at criminal mischief.
“Then we are looking at the aggravated battery for the bowling ball that was thrown and hit the victim on the head.”
It is unknown the extent of the injuries the woman suffered after being struck by the ball since she has not been located by law enforcement.
No other injuries had been reported following the brawl.
It is unclear how the quarrel started but, investigators were at Lucky Strike Miami Tuesday evening interviewing witnesses and security guards, according to WPLG.
Lucky Strike Miami recently opened its doors inside the under-construction mix-use Miami Worldcenter in Downtown Miami on March 25.
