CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) — Two tour guides got into a fistfight in front of tourists after one accused the other of stealing customers, police said.
Terrill Leff, a guide with Charleston Tours, started to argue with Marvin Katzen, owner of Doin' the Charleston Tours, on Tuesday as Katzen was loading visitors onto a bus, police said.
"There was some kind of ongoing feud between these two guys. This is the second or third time they've gotten into it, but it was the first time they exchanged blows," Officer Hiram Joyner said.
Katzen, 53, told police Leff slapped him twice in the face, knocking off his glasses. Then fists started flying as several tourists looked on, police said.
Leff, 45, needed stitches for a wound on his forehead.
Both men were charged with assault.
