Things quickly turned ugly when both men locked into their own wrestling match, with other parents getting involved. 

From there, other parents got involved and hit the floor as more rushed down from the stands. 

The video that has gone viral on social media shows a closer look of the incident.

Some parents were being held back from one another.

The match between young Anderson Diaz and Alexander Finklestein was stopped while referees helped break things up. 

It’s unclear if there were any injuries or arrests. 

The Phillipsburg School District and Warren County Prosecutor’s Office did not immediately answer a request for comment.
