Who’s supposed to settle fights between referees and players?

An AAU basketball game spiraled out of control Sunday in the Atlanta area, where a game devolved into an all-out brawl.

The videos of the brawl, in a game between Chicago’s Raw Athletics and the Houston Raptors, according to Yahoo Sports, have gone viral. One begins with three players surrounding a prone official, who escaped the melee but clearly was steaming. He, and other officials on hand, were involved in multiple scrums with the players; each time the violence died down, another fight would break out.

The specifics of the skirmish, its inception and fallout, are unclear. However, Raw Athletics’ coach, Howard Martin, gave his team’s side of the story on Twitter.

“A ref actually walked up on one of our players and attacked him,” he wrote. “Everyone tried to break it all up, then the ref’s father (who was working a game on a different court) ran over to our court and rushed our guys..everyone in the gym, the other team and the directors saw everything.”
