MILWAUKEE — Pushing and shoving broke out Monday among some of the 2,500 people hit hard by recent floods who lined up outside a county office in hopes of collecting free food vouchers.
Some residents told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel they heard from friends or at food pantries that they could get free vouchers to replace food lost in recent floods and power outages. However, the Marcia P. Coggs Human Services Center was only taking names for a state voucher program.
Scuffles began breaking out about 7 a.m. with people shoving, pushing and taking a door off its hinges, bringing police in dozens of cars, authorities said. There were no serious injuries or arrests.
