According to Bensalem Twp.Public Safety Director Bill McVey, There were no arrests made at the scene, however charges could be forthcoming once the store security video is reviewed. The arrest mentioned in the original story is unrelated to the Golden Corral.  McVey did confirm that some people did receive medical attention for non life threatening injuries.

The fight was a result of an argument between two different groups of people that were seated near each other.  McVey did not want to speculate as to what the argument was about. “The fight was pretty much broken up by the time police got there, ” he said.  The Golden Corral remained open after the fight. It was closed on Saturday due to the snow storm.

Anyone with more video is asked to call (215)633-3719.

  1. There Was a video shared by the woman who by her own admission said her fiance started it .And he is the man with the white skin and light hair.Of course she removed that on Facebook but a lot of people saw it.He was swinging children’s chair’s.And they had a child with them.A disgrace that supposed Adults act like animal’s.Children could of been hurt..He was looking for trouble and got it.Then took off.

  2. That man mentioned by Liz (above) was shouting racist comments and hit a woman with a chair, then the fight broke out. Before he hit that last with the chair, it was just an argument. I was there with my sister and tried to break it up. He also hit a pregnant worker with a chair he threw towards the door.

  3. SHAME We will never see peace in my lifetime. I know that now. We can’t get along with family or neighbors. When will we respect one another!!
