Carnage Breaks Out In Brutal Fight Between Parents At New Jersey Youth Wrestling Meet

Sprawls and a big brawl headlined a Phillipsburg, New Jersey high school wrestling meet, with several parents now having to answer for a brutal fight that went viral.

On Sunday, parents at Phillipsburg High School in Lopatcong Township led a free-for-all skirmish on the mats during the youth wrestling meet.

While no root cause has been identified, it's safe to say that the ‘adults in the room’ set a terrible precedent for the onlooking students taking in the frantic whistles, screams and bodies rushing in to pry their fellow parent off someone else's parent.

Certainly not the typical carnage you'd expect at a high school wrestling match. One parent even got a boot to the head amid the fighting.

WATCH:

A lot of these hits definitely check out as ‘assault.’ Law enforcement eventually stepped in. One bystander at the scene shared a photo on X, showing one parent escorted by authorities.

And don't expect to see a lot of these ferocious faces inside this gym once punishment by the police department or school district is handed down. There have been no reported causes for the multi-parent skirmish.

As relayed by Fox News Digital, the match between youth wrestlers Anderson Diaz and Alexander Finklestein had to be stopped as parents rushed onto the mats in dispute.

The bleachers were better off empty that day …
