Family feud turns into riot in small Ala. town
Up to 150 people brawl with tire irons, baseball bats; 8 arrested
   
MARION, Ala. - Two Alabama families that had been fighting for years turned their feud into a full-scale riot Monday outside a small-town city hall, with up to 150 screaming people hurling tire irons and wielding baseball bats.

Eight people were arrested, and at least four were hurt, Trooper John Reese said. Two were taken to hospitals. The town's police chief was hit in the head with a crowbar but was OK.

The two- or three-year-old feud apparently prompted a fight earlier in the day at a high school, after a window was shot out of a home Sunday night. Then, "all hell broke loose" later in the day, said Sgt. Carlton Hogue of the Perry County Sheriff's Department.

I think Jerry Springer would love to get two warring families of >200 ppl on his show.  He'd rent a friggin wrestling arena and a banjo orchestra.

I'd watch.
