Two People Charged With Punching Cops at Drunken Wedding

A New Jersey man recently turned himself in after participating in a drunken brawl at a Philadelphia wedding, in which he assaulted a police officer. He was the second person charged in connection with the incident, which happened earlier this month and was caught completely on film. The brawl happened at the Society Hill Sheraton on Dock Street, a respectable and wealthy neighborhood in Philadelphia. The bride’s uncle also died after the incident.

Though it isn’t clear if any of the 100+ participants in the fistfight had a history of alcohol abuse, what is clear is that alcohol itself is a dangerous drug that causes people to do things they normally wouldn’t. It’s linked with violence and unruly behavior, and easily becomes a substance that people become dependent on. Alcoholism is a serious disease, and one that can lead to all sorts of heartbreak and trauma. However, the good news is that the same strategy that works on harder drugs like pot, cocaine, PCP, meth, heroin, or prescription pills also works on alcohol: a good program of treatment at a top-rated facility.

If you or someone you know has a problem with alcohol addiction or dependence, you should seek help now. Thankfully, there is good help available. Detoxification and behavioral therapy have proven to be effective in treating alcohol and drug dependence. Addicts are often unable to complete treatment on their own or with family members, so it’s very important to seek the right treatment center.
