Five U.S. cruise passengers—three women and two men—were arrested after a Monday evening fight involving several passengers at Nassau's port, Bahamian police said.
A violent struggle then broke out at a police station as officers prepared to search the suspects, leading to assault and resisting-arrest accusations.
Four officers were injured, including one taken to a hospital with a serious left-shoulder injury.
