A Facebook video showing several fights in Stanley Holmes Village on Sunday has garnered a lot of attention — including from investigators.
It’s unclear what sparked the fights, which started with two men squaring off and winding up in the bushes in the first village, across the street from Brown’s Park.
As a woman tries to intervene, she gets pulled back and another fight starts.
Then several people are seen pairing off as chants of fight can be heard, spilling into the street.
“Oh sh**, Squally,” someone calls as police show up about 2½ minutes in.
That's slang for police.
The yelling continues as more officers arrive.

The 9½-minute video was filmed by Dour Bailey, who eventually deleted the post after it got too much attention.
But
Scan AtlanticCity — known as
@AtlanticCity911 on Twitter — picked it up from there.
The page’s post had nearly 600 shares and more than 30,000 views when Facebook took it down.
“Every time it gets hot, man,” Bailey says in the video.
It’s an ongoing investigation, Sgt. Kevin Fair said.
Anyone with information can call police at 609-347-5788 or text tip411 (847411) anonymously beginning the text with ACPD.
