KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Two women and a teenage boy were arrested Sunday afternoon after a series of fights marred Free Day at the Kansas City Zoo.

Kansas City, Missouri Police arrested 40-year old Minnie Davidson for resisting arrest. Another woman, Drucilla Davidson, 20, and a 15-year old boy were both charged with assault on a police officer.

The largest fight took place at closing time in the parking lot near the main entrance. But Mary Summers from Independence, Mo., told FOX 4 there was also a huge brawl earlier in the day in the Africa section of the zoo.

“Somebody yelled, ‘Gun!’ and that’s when I just threw my kids underneath the bench and threw myself on top of them,” Summers said.

It began with two groups in their late teens and early twenties flashing gang signs at each other.

“One guy just swung and hit the one guy and that’s when the two groups came together and they started fighting,” Summers said.

The fights took place on one of the zoo’s busiest days of the year. More than 29,000 visitors showed up to take advantage of Free Day for Jackson and Clay County residents.

Have you ever seen monkeys masturbating in a cage? I have a feeling it would be much more prevalent in a prison zoo.

“two groups in their late teens and early twenties flashing gang signs at each other.”

Possibly the local chess club.

It’s always the case at any “Free” day. In just a few short months, various cities will be having “FREE” day at the beach, “Free” 4th of July concerts, “Free” Memorial Day at the park, etc etc...and every year there are riots courtesy of the feral urban youth....without fail.

OK, on the positive side, this was described as “fights”:

I expected a “fight” to be 10 blacks jumping on an elderly white guy.

Instead it actually was a “fight” between feral groups.

“Lemme guess...usual suspects?”

Mmmm-—not mentioned in the article—says a definite YES to me. Maybe they thought obamaphones were supposed to be passed out.
