    “Apparently” is doing a lot of work here. This is the story the group of teens that beat Nex gave the police. There’s absolutely zero legal precident for using violence to defend yourself from having water poured on you anyway, so I don’t see how it’s relevant to decide who “started the fight”.

      Did you listen to Nex’s recorded statement? Nex volunteered the idea that they poured water and initiated the confrontation because the others were possibly “laughing at them”.

      Nex is also on camera filling up the bottle and going into the bathroom to confront the group.

      Does that mean Nex deserved to be beaten by a group of people? No and they should be investigated. But stop making up facts to suit your narrative or ignoring information that contradicts what you hoped happened.
