According to Jacksonville CBS affiliate Channel 47, the six sailors were charged with drunk and disorderly conduct and three were charged with resisting arrest. Channel 47 reports:
"One of the three pushed and pulled an officer; the second refused to put his hands behind his back and was stunned by a Taser; and the third was actively fighting and refused to stop, officers said.
These arrests reportedly took place late Wednesday into early Thursday.
A sergeant with the police department said the sailors were getting into drunken fights mostly with one another.
Officials said there have been no further issues since speaking with the ship's leaders."
