CdA police target teen fights

City police said they are getting closer to identifying antagonists in a teenage brawl at Tubbs Hill and plan to press charges once the investigation is complete.

The video of a Tubbs Hill mob scene in which a shirtless teen struck another youth with a cane — as the melee of swinging fists and flailing arms was documented on a shakily-held cellphone — has Coeur d’Alene residents concerned.

The incident was among several that occurred around Memorial Day weekend, and the aggressive outbursts haven’t stopped.

On a recent Facebook post, Coeur d’Alene resident Audrey Rhodes described a mob of teens fighting in City Park on Wednesday.

“This is now the second major incident this summer already,” Rhodes wrote. “These fights happen in broad daylight in family places with lots of tourists”/ Ralph Bartholdt , Coeur d’Alene Press. More here.

Question: Are you concerned with teen fights in Coeur d’Alene?
