The trio allegedly assaulted the owner of the dock and others over the weekend.

The man said when the group arrived, he took Branam aside and urged him not to create the same problems he had on previous visits. Branam allegedly assured the owner there would be no trouble, the men “just wanted a fun night.” Later in the evening, two other men came to the dock with a fight ensuing between them and the trio.

As the dock owner attempted to control the chaos by asking everyone to leave, an unnamed female entered the altercation, the report said. By this time, all five men were allegedly engaged in the altercation.

With the fight escalating, the dock owner was also struck in the fight. (WLAF NEWS PUBLISHED 05/20/2022- 6AM)
