‘Disgusting’ fight at the Kowloon Restaurant in Saugus
A “disgusting” fight broke out at the Kowloon Restaurant on Route 1 in Saugus on Thanksgiving eve that forced the popular eatery to close down for the night.
Saugus police said they rushed to a call for a fight in progress on Wednesday night at 10:30 p.m. Six Police officers who were already working a detail at the restaurant, were quickly alerted and able to “de-escalate” the brawl.
That’s when restaurant management decided to close the bar and restaurant early for the evening.
Several young men who were involved in the fight were detained and questioned by police but were not arrested — with some needing medical treatment.
Although no arrests were made, the investigation is ongoing. Charges may be forthcoming, as one individual used a glass bottle in the fight which is a felony, police said in a statement Friday.
“The Kowloon is a family friendly restaurant, unfortunately a few unruly patrons ruined a nice evening for many others. A disturbance such as this on Thanksgiving Eve is unacceptable and disgusting,” Chief Michael Ricciardelli sid.
Police are still speaking with witnesses and anyone with information is asked to call police.
