Video shared by Unite Here 11 – a union representing dishwashers, room attendants, bellhops and others – shows a disturbance on a picket line outside a Santa Monica hotel on Saturday. The video shows people in suits scuffling with picketers, but it’s unclear who the people in suits are or what happened before the video started.
Officers from the Santa Monica Police Department were present, but CNN has not been able to determine if any report was filed.
Unite Here 11 said they filed a complaint over this and other “ugly episodes of violence on picket lines at hotels where workers have been on strike.”
