The Madison Police Department used a video from a Facebook page to arrest three 14-year-old girls on battery charges Tuesday, according to an incident report.
The 34-year-old mother of one of the girls was among those battered in the fight. An onlooker recorded the video that police used to make the arrests, in which other witnesses can be heard encouraging the fight.
The 55-second clip shows the girls fighting, kicking and punching each other, and even battering the mother.
One witness reported the fight started due to a post on social media. The incident occurred on the east side’s Starker Avenue.
