SNELLVILLE, Ga. - A popular Snellville public pool is closing this week after a violent encounter between patrons.

No arrests were made, but the police are investigating.
"City officials will take the week to review protocol and safety procedures in an effort to provide and maintain a safe and family friendly environment at the pool," a statement released by the city on Monday reads in part.
