One Stabbed After Huge Parking Lot Fight in Federal Way Apartment

The Federal Way Police Department is investigating after a huge fight broke out in the parking lot of a large Park 16 Apartments complex. The fight escalated after what looked like a shiny knife was shown in a confrontation between two people. A resident shot the entire fight on their phone from an apartment above the parking lot. The Park 16 Apartments on 16th Ave. S. has been recently plagued with multiple large fights according to residents interviewed by Fox 13. After the fight escalated, more than 20 people jumped in with 4 seen swinging baton bats according to police. The shocking video shows multiple people using batons to attack and then some being swarmed by others, disarmed, and then having the batons used against them.
