Police investigate video of children fighting

The News Journal

Online videos showing young children fighting in Wilmington are being investigated by police, a department spokeswoman said.

Two separate videos were posted on Delaware Online's Facebook page Sunday showing children fighting while adults laughed, cheer and videoed them.

In one video, two young shirtless boys, fought each other on a city sidewalk. In one clip, the taller child knocks the shorter boy to the ground. The boy then begins to cry. The 32-second clip then cuts to the two boys fighting near a porch, while a young girl tries to separate them.

A second video, that's 2 minutes and 27 seconds long, shows the shorter boy telling someone inside a parked minivan: "Get out. Get out."

The little girl gets out and goes after the boy with a shoe. She also tells the boy: "You're not getting in my mother's car anymore."

All this while adults and older children watch and laugh.
