Street Fight

Officers from the Socorro Police Department and County Sheriff’s Department responded to a fight between four men Wednesday at about 1:30 p.m. in the parking lot of El Camino Plaza on California Street. The Mountain Mail was on the scene and spoke with the owner of Tom’s Barber Shop, who said the altercation began when one of the men spit in the face of another in the barber shop. After they left the business, the men paired off and two of them took their fight into the southbound lane of California, forcing drivers to veer around them before police arrived, Tom Sarate said. As of press time Wednesday, the names of the subjects had not been released.
