WATCH: 30-person brawl erupts at Walmart after teens laughed at a woman’s dress

GATES, N.Y. — Authorities are continuing to investigate a 30-person brawl at a western New York Walmart that led to four arrests.

Gates Police Chief Jim VanBrederode says the fight started around 7 p.m. Sunday after two 17-year-old girls made fun of a dress worn by a 24-year-old woman. He says the altercation quickly escalated into a melee.

The chief says people went into the sporting goods section of the store and got baseball bats to use in the fight.

“It was in total chaos when officers got there, it’s just disgusting to see that kind of behaviour happening right here,” VanBrederode told NBC affiliate WHEC. “People have no respect for other people and these situations are becoming much more common here in Monroe County.”

Police say a 17-year-old girl threw a can of food at a 52-year-old man, hitting him in the head. She’s charged with assault, harassment and related offences. Three others have been charged with disorderly conduct.

Authorities are continuing to review surveillance video.
