GALVESTON, Texas (FOX 26) - Firefighters and police officers duked it out Saturday night at the 10th Annual Galveston Battle of the Badges.

The event pits police officers against firefighters in an amateur boxing competition -- all for a good cause.

Last year's event was right after Hurricane Harvey and raised over $50,000 for local charities.

The Santa Fe Strong Resiliency Center also honored some first responders who were there during the Santa Fe tragedy.
