Fight in back of Kamloops RCMP cruiser lands two women in jail

Kamloops RCMP were forced to arrest a pair of women who got into a brawl in the back of police cruiser this past weekend.

An officer was taking the women to their home when they started arguing in the back of the police vehicle at around 1:15 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 26.

The argument escalated to a physical fight and they had to be separated into two different police cars, according to an RCMP news release.

Police didn't say exactly why the two women were in the back of the police cruiser in the first place, but instead of heading home, both women were lodged in cells and released when they were sober.

Neither of the women were given court dates and criminal charges aren't expected.
