Chicago police say two women were attacked with a broken bottle during a fight among a large group of well-dressed people in Streeterville on Sunday evening.

A Snapchat video showed a couple dozen people gathered in the 200 block of East Ontario as police tried to disperse the group around 8:50 p.m. Some people in the group are decked out in formal wear. Other Snaps from the area were sent from a wedding ceremony where some people appeared to be wearing outfits similar to those seen in the crowd. One Snap showed police officers in the reception hall.

Police said a “known offender” attacked two women in the group with a glass bottle. A 24-year-old suffered small cuts to her arm and head. A 27-year-old received a cut on her left arm. Both were taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital in good condition.

Here’s some footage from Snapchat. There is a NSFW utterance toward the end of the video:

“well dressed”. As in white fedoras, $400 sneakers and gold “grills” in their moufs.

A well prepared wedding photographer will have gotten drone footage of the fight to be cherished for generations.

Wedding fights know no bounds of race, class, religion or sexual orientation. They are truly an equalizing force in American society.

My cousin ended up with a bloody nose, sitting on the side of the curb, at his wedding. I think alcohol had something to do with it . . . . . .

“Wedding fights know no bounds of race, class, religion or sexual orientation. They are truly an equalizing force in American society.”

Or evidence of the ubiquitous nature of morons.

After my wedding reception, where my new brother in-law imbibed 90% of a bottle of Firewater, he proceeded to scream at his spouse in front of their 4 small children, shatter his windshield with a punch, before jumping out of the vehicle and fleeing into the night.

A call was received from the police around 2:30 AM, (at my new mother and Father in-law’s) to come and pick him up, as he was found running down a residential street, drunk, naked and kicking a plastic cover taken from someone’s yard lightpost down the middle of the street.

When my father and brother in-law went to get him out of jail, they asked the police, “Can we beat him?”

They said, “Sure, just wait until after you leave to do it.”

Streeterville is a wealthy area with fancy hotels that are good wedding venues.
