WICHITA — One person required stitches, and a mother and son were arrested after two drill teams began brawling at an impromptu “dance off” over the weekend.

The Dynamic Steppers were practicing routines Saturday night when members of another drill team, the White Tigers, showed up and issued a dance-off challenge, police said.

When the challengers appeared to be losing, a woman struck a 17-year-old Dynamic Steppers drummer in the face with a drumstick, said Wichita police Lt. Jeff Easter.

The teen punched the 28-year-old woman in the face. He then ran toward his Ford Explorer and tried to run over spectators, witnesses told police.

The boy’s mother, a Dynamic Steppers coach, grabbed a box cutter and sliced the other woman’s right arm, Easter said. The wound required eight stitches.

An estimated 50 persons became involved in the altercation.
