Brawl Erupts at América Fan Serenade Outside Toluca Hotel Before Jornada 17 Match

Videos with witness accounts point to a slow police response.

Overview

  • Multiple videos captured the clash, including footage of an América fan with a visible head wound reportedly caused by a bottle.
  • Fans and witnesses said police on site did not intervene promptly, while later reports noted security arrived minutes afterward with no official account or injury tally released.
