BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) - Days after dodging questions from the WAFB I-TEAM, Mayor-President Sharon Weston Broome has now come clean about the demise of a top aide.

The alleged act of violence happened outside of a Baton Rouge lounge, where the WAFB I-TEAM is told a video shows a woman appearing to be Courtney Scott whacking a man across the head with a folding chair. The incident left the man a bloody mess and required him to get stitches. Until this morning, the mayor had dodged any questions about what she knew about the whole ordeal - and when she knew it.
