PHILADELPHIA (MyFoxPhilly) - Philadelphia police say another arrest has been made in the case of a weekend wedding brawl.

Brian Lanza, 29, of Westfield, N.J., turned himself in Monday, police said.

Lanza had an active arrest warrant for a count of assault on police.

Investigators say he was originally arrested for disorderly conduct but was released.

Police say after further investigation, however, it was determined Lanza assaulted an officer.

The entire brawl, which was captured on video, included a large group of people fighting on Sunday, Oct. 7, in the bar area of the Sheraton Hotel in the city's Society Hill neighborhood.

Police say Lanza faces criminal conspiracy, aggravated assault and resisting arrest charges.
