An argument at a water park spiraled into a brawl on Saturday in central Israel, prompting the closure of the park for the day and the detention of 12 people.

Footage showed people throwing chairs and other large objects at each other, as people could be seen fleeing the chaos at the Yamit 2000 waterpark in Holon.

The melee broke out around 3 p.m., after someone refused a request by lifeguards to turn down the music from their personal speaker, according to the Ynet news site.

Two security guards were lightly injured as a result of the brawl, with police officers arriving on the scene to break up the fight after the park’s security staff could not.

Police said they detained 12 suspects in the incident, all residents of southern Israel.

They were taken to the Holon police station for questioning.
