PENSACOLA BEACH, Fla. — Two women are now charged for a fight on Pensacola Beach Sunday afternoon that has since gone viral on social media.
Victoria Posey, 18, was first arrested Sunday evening on a battery charge. She was released from Escambia County Jail the same day on $1,000 bond.
Allanaha Hills, 20, was then charged Tuesday night with battery after turning herself in to deputies. She was released from Escambia County Jail on $2,500 bond.
The incident happened in the Mommy Beach parking lot on Pensacola Beach Boulevard.
A video on Facebook showing the physical altercation has garnered over 7.6 million views as of Wednesday morning.
According to the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office, the incident started with Posey holding a parking spot by standing in it.
Deputies say a verbal argument between Posey and another female eventually turned physical when Posey began hitting the victim.
“It started over a parking spot,” said Lt. James Barnes with the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office. “The lady arrived to park, but [Posey] was standing in the spot holding it. So when she gets out to say, ‘Hey I’m trying to park here,’ an argument started — and then they started fighting over the parking spot.”
The viral Facebook video shows a woman in a pink outfit, Posey, punching a female victim numerous times — as well as pulling her hair — as the victim was on the ground.
The video also shows a woman in a blue outfit, Hills, hitting on another female who approached and hit Posey as Posey was punching the first victim.
