Nine people were killed and 18 other people were injured in a confrontation involving “criminal” motorcycle gangs at a Twin Peaks restaurant on the south side of Waco early Sunday afternoon.
Police say 170 bikers were booked into the McLennan County Jail to be charged with Engaging in Organized Crime. That number has decreased from 192, originally reported by police Monday. Each was being held on $1 million bond. Other charges may be pending.
Waco police spokesman Sgt. W. Patrick Swanton said some of the dead and wounded may have been struck by gunfire from law enforcement.
“They started shooting at our officers and our officers returned fire,” he said.
