We're getting our first look today inside the Waco restaurant where a deadly shootout between rival motorcycle gangs unfolded. We do want to warn you the video is graphic and some people may find it difficult to watch, but it also gives a sense of the chaos that unfolded when bullets started flying. CNN's Ed Lavendera shows us what surveillance video captured at the Twin Peaks in Waco back in May. This was the scene inside the Twin Peaks restaurant in May just before the violent shootout that killed nine people and ended up in the mass arrests of 177 bikers. A fight and shootout erupts just off camera between a group of motorcycle clubs called the Banditos and the Cossacks. The reaction tells the story of the chaos and horrific scene. Hide in bathrooms and the restaurant kitchen. In dozens of police interviews, Cossack and Bandito bike club members blamed their rivals for starting the deadly mail-in. The mass arrests of the 177 bikers that day all charged with organized criminal activity. They came here for a reason we think part of that reason was a criminal activity. But many of the bikers and their attorneys say investigators and prosecutors overreacted by carrying out mass arrests. Some say these videos show the vast majority are innocent of the criminal charges.
