Dozens of police break up brawl at NC church

FLETCHER, N.C. -- Authorities say a dispute over leadership at a church in western North Carolina turned from angry words to fist fights.

About 30 police officers from five agencies were called to break up fights Sunday at Greater New Zion Baptist Church in Fletcher, about 94 miles west of Charlotte.

Henderson County Sheriff's Capt. Jerry Rice says the brawl is under investigation and no one appears to have been seriously hurt.

Rice says there were about 75 people at the church when police arrived, but not all of them were scuffling.

1. Are they blaming Sarah Palin for this fight?

Has she tweeted on the subject yet.

Breathlessly, the world awaits...
