SPRING VALLEY LAKE • What possibly started as a fight over a crow led to a melee involving at least 50 people during Spring Valley Lake’s Family Festival, according to San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Victor Valley station officials.

Two groups of people were barbecuing along the east beach near Spring Valley Parkway and Country Club Drive on Saturday night when a member of the first group kicked a crow that was hopping around their area, said Stella Hodson, spokeswoman for the Victor Valley station.

“Someone from the second group took exception to the abuse of the bird and confronted the first man,” she said, adding that’s when the initial verbal fight broke out.

The second man, who has not been identified, picked up a wrench and hit the man who’d kicked the crow over the head. At that time, people from both groups began to brawl.

When deputies arrived several people ran away.

Deputies took the man who wielded the wrench to a local hospital after he was beaten by the victim’s friends, Hodson said. The victim drove himself to a hospital.

“Deputies took the man who wielded the wrench to a local hospital after he was beaten by the victim’s friends”

And next, the dope will get charged with assault.

Although there is no reason for animal cruelty doesn’t it strike you as hypocritical the fact that the one objecting to violence against an animal used violence himself against a fellow man. Violence against animal = bad, violence against human = good.

We are so out of whack where we care more about animals than humans, I can almost guarantee the guy who kicked the bird could go to jail longer than the guy who assaulted him.

No Family Festival would be complete without a riot.

She walks into Smokey's one hip at a time

Like a broken field runner slippin' through the line

He likes the way she looks so he calls the little wife says

"Don't wait up for me I'll be workin' late tonight"

Wife hangs up the phone, bursts into tears

Calls her sister up and cries "Get over here"

Sister tells her boyfriend be back in awhile

Boyfriend wants a beer, the store is just a mile

He leaves the motor running he'll only be a minute

His car drives away with teenagers in it

The driver tells his buddies, got one life to live

They scream into the night "Let's get it over with"

'Caws and effect, chain of events

All of the chaos makes perfect sense

When you're spinning round, things come undone

Welcome to Earth 3rd rock from the Sun

The kid guns the gas, the car starts to swerve

Heads for a semi truck, jumps the curb

Truck hits a Big Boy in the Shoney's parking lot

And flies through the air takes out the bank clock

Clock strikes a light pole, transformer sparks

Lines go down, town goes dark

Waitress calls the cops, says she saw it all

Swears a giant alien has landed at the mall

Cops ring up the mayor says there's panic in the streets

"We hate to wake you up but we can't find the chief"

Mayor says "Use your head if he ain't in his car

He's hiding from his wife, down at Smokey's Bar"

'Caws and effect, chain of events

All of the chaos makes perfect sense

When you're spinning round, things come undone

Welcome to Earth 3rd rock from the Sun

'Caws and effect, chain of events

All of the chaos makes perfect sense

When you're spinning round, things come undone

Welcome to Earth 3rd rock from the Sun
