Two FDNY firefighters are to face charges due to a brawl last month in the Salty Dog bar in Brooklyn.

Christopher Emme, Michael Reilly, and Ryan Warnock turned themselves in on Thursday morning to the Brooklyn district attorney, according to an ABC report.

However, one was released, leaving two to face charges. Reilly and Warnock will get assault charges against them. Several other firefighters involved in the brawl will face charges as well.

Four people were injured in the brawl in late January. The men were filmed by security cameras at the bar throwing punches after someone spilled a drink on one of them. Reports add that it wasn’t confirmed who initiated the fight.

The Salty Dog, located in Bay Ridge, is a popular hangout spot for firefighters, according to reports.
