Police Fear Retaliation For Biker Gang Brawls - :: Cincinnati news story :: LOCAL 12 WKRC-TV in Cincinnati: "worried call from a woman is what started the fight at the Lake Bar Saturday evening. The woman who we're not naming is the girlfriend of a biker who used to be an Iron Horseman. He was reportedly thrown out of the club a couple of years ago and joined the Detroit Highwaymen. That's something you just don't do in the world of outlaw motorcycle gangs.

Investigators tell me the woman went into Frankie and Jaimies, also known as the Lake Bar, saw at least one Iron Horsemen there, and called her boyfriend, saying she wasn't being allowed to leave the club. At the time the club was filled with people, and it's not believed she was really at risk. The biker boyfriend called a group of Highwaymen pals and nine bikers walked into the bar to 'rescue' the woman.

The bar owner says the attack was caught on tape. The ensuing fight involving a ball bat and knives, landed four Highwaymen in the hospital and nine behind bars. Included in that list is the local chapter president of the Detroit Highwaymen, Joe Earls. Earls has a day job and is from Delhi, and has only a minor criminal history. At the time of his arrest prosecutors say Earls had a handgun with him as did two other bikers, two of them including Earls have concealed carry permits. Earls and his biker brothers were ordered held on $100,00 bonds."
