One Wedding, Four Brothers, Four Arrests

SEPTEMBER 3--In a summer that has already seen its share of wedding brawls (see Bridezilla and the Mad Muncher), a quartet of Michigan brothers was arrested early Sunday morning for triggering a melee at their 27-year-old sister's wedding reception. According to the below Ogemaw County Sheriff's Office report, the Evers brothers (Erik, Aaron, Ryan, and Randall) got ornery after the bar shut near the close of the festivities. A bartender got kicked and bit on the nose. The female DJ, who stopped spinning when three separate brawls erupted, was called a "whore" by Randall Evers, who then allegedly slammed the woman into a wall, knocking her unconscious. Randall, 38, then punched a female friend of the DJ's, whose front teeth were "broke." One fight apparently stemmed from a contentious arm wrestling match between the groom and 29-year-old Aaron Evers, who was soundly defeated by his new brother-in-law, who taunted his opponent as he drank from a pitcher of beer. Here's our favorite lines from the sheriff's report: "Ryan was arrested for assaulting his brother, Erik. Erik was arrested for assaulting his brother, Ryan. Randy was arrested for assaulting the bartender and the DJ's of the wedding reception." (3 pages)
