A group of bikers gather outside the McLennan County Courthouse for a memorial rally on the three year anniversary in 2018.

Today is the 3-year anniversary of a shootout between rival motorcycle groups at a restaurant in Waco . Bikers held a memorial rally for the 9 people who died during the incident.

In May of 2015 a fight broke out between the Bandidos and the Cossacks and 177 people were arrested on million-dollar bonds. A small group of bikers gathered on the courthouse steps to hold a prayer along with a moment of silence for those that died during the shooting. Sandra Lynch is one of the people who was arrested after the melee, Lynch says she and others were also victims. “I was assaulted that morning and it should have been stopped an hour before it happened had the law enforcement done their job” Lynch Said

In recent weeks a majority of the cases have been dismissed. Only about a dozen will be tried in court later this year.
