Buda police will not file charges in an east Buda brawl that occurred last week, Buda Police Chief Bo Kidd said.
At around 1:50 a.m. on April 18, police were sent to the 2000 block of Cambria Drive, where at least five people were believed to be fighting.
The incident began as a verbal altercation between two women and turned into a scuffle with three women and two men, who were all drinking alcohol, said Kidd, who described the incident as mutual combat.
