Abdiel Valcarcel, 17, faces felony charge of battery

ORLANDO, Fla. – After a fight was reported at an Orlando nightclub last week, Orange County deputies announced that a “young man” came forward about his involvement, leading to the arrest of a 17-year-old.

In a release, investigators said the incident originally happened on Aug. 7 around 9 p.m., when deputies were performing off-duty work at Knight’s Library, a nightclub along University Boulevard.

At the time, a fight broke out, leaving one person hospitalized in the aftermath, deputies added.

News 6 later learned that a woman — identified as Olivia Noguera — had suffered a fractured skull and a brain bleed when two men began fighting inside the club. She told News 6 that the crowd had pushed her toward the altercation.
