The incident unfolded when the Harriott II riverboat, carrying 227 passengers, attempted to dock in its reserved spot at Riverfront Park. 

However, the designated spot was occupied by a private pontoon boat, which caused a dispute that escalated when the co-captain of the riverboat, Damien Pickett, attempted to address the situation.
