Definitely one of the most interesting stories I've heard. Earlier today, 3 rival biker gangs got into a confrontation at a restaurant in Texas. Things escalated, and a massive shootout ensued involving the bikers and police who were already on scene monitoring the situation. No officers were injured during this.

Police also seized over 100 weapons, including melee weapons like knives, chains and baseball bats, and guns.

That's some 1980s shit!

That's some The Lost and Damned shit! Glad no civilians or officers are caught in a crossfire. 

What scum bags. I'm glad no by-standers were injured, those that were killed deserved it hands-down. A fire fight in a car park with families eating lunch, people shopping and workers doing their thing all around? Sub human. I really cannot fathom this.

MURICA!!!!

Just glad the officers and civilians got home safely.

Damn! That is some serious GTA shit right there! Like something straight out of a GTA game! I am just glad no innocent people got hurt or police. But this is definitely a story for the books, that's for sure! Man though it is rare, guess in the end GTA isn't all that far fetched from reality, though it takes things to extreme levels, as we can see, every so often in real life something that would happen in GTA does happen like this. Dang man....just glad there were no innocent casualties! Thank god!

An update on this, police knew about the meeting and had 12 officers on scene as it was happening, including parts of a SWAT Team. Its now confirmed that 5 rival gangs were shooting at each other, and police arrived within seconds and killed an estimated 4 of the 9 dead.

Well they ARE police officers, I am just surprised it wasn't them all. GTA in real life in a nutshell. They did it right.

Wow. Lost And Dammned & Angels Of Death going at it again.

Gang Rivals, what do you expect. Glad no officers were hit.

​Actually, articles suggest that most of the bikers were shot by police, and stabbed by rival gangs. What we do know is that by the end of this entire situation we had 9 people dead. What we don't know is the number that died of gun shot wounds, and by who? It's always a possibility that some of the bikers were shot by police. These news articles are written in a way that is deliberately misleading for people that lack the ability to think.

There is nothing the restaurant could've done to stop it, they didn't think this was going to happen.
