Five juveniles were arrested in the incident

City officials are reviewing surveillance video from Albany’s downtown cameras to help determine what caused a street brawl Saturday.

The fight broke out after a hip hop concert and block party. Albany assistant city manager Wes Smith says there was plenty of security on hand and they did all they could to keep the area safe.

“This was just a spillover after the event was over that kids didn't have anything better to do and went down to turtle park and an unfortunate incident occurred,” Said Smith.

Police arrested several juveniles and charged them with disorderly conduct.

They were released to their parents.
