Authorities are investigating an alleged drunken country club brawl between a former upstate New York mayor and his predecessor, with one claiming he was “body-slammed” into a car.
Oneida County Sheriff Robert Maciol confirmed to the Daily Sentinel Wednesday that his office took a complaint regarding a clash between Rome Mayor Jeffrey Lanigan and his predecessor, Jim Brown, in the parking lot of Teugega Country Club on Tuesday evening. The city of Rome is located 40 miles east of Syracuse. Both Lanigan and Brown are Republicans.
