The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office arrested 23 juveniles and 6 adults following a violent disturbance in Brandon, Florida. The incident occurred on May 18, 2024, when a crowd of 400-500 individuals gathered in the parking lot of Astro Skate after a private party was canceled. The cancellation led to a call on social media for people to riot and confront law enforcement. The brawl, described as a 'wild riot,' resulted in 29 arrests, Florida cops say. The skating rink requires groups to hire an off-duty deputy for private parties, a requirement that was not met by the organizers. The incident took place about 15 miles east of Tampa.
