Two cruise guests were arrested after allegedly forcing their way inside a cabin and attacking fellow passengers.

Ohio residents Gannon Jacox, 29, and his girlfriend, 28-year-old Brooklyn Hicks, were arguing when one of the victims “asked them to quiet down,” Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey in Florida said in an Aug. 16 Facebook post. Hicks allegedly went to confront them and Jacox followed, recording on his cell phone, officials said.

Jacox then told Hicks to “beat them up,” authorities said, and the pair allegedly pushed their way into the other passenger’s cabin. A fight broke out and Jacox allegedly hit all three occupants, including a 9-year-old-child, but none were seriously injured.

Hicks also struck one victim, according to an arrest affidavit. The couple had been drinking alcohol prior to the incident, the Facebook post said.

Jacox faces three charges of felony burglary with assault or battery, one charge of felony child abuse and one misdemeanor charge of battery, per court records. Hicks was charged with one count of felony burglary with assault or battery and one count of misdemeanor battery.

Attorneys listed for the pair did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Authorities did not name the cruise line or ship they were sailing on.
