By Jon DePaolis, Richard Free Press: MOKENA, Ill. — A fight inside a Mokena business Sunday, Feb. 27, led to the arrest of a 17-year-old from Indiana. Interim Mokena Police Chief Brian Benton said police responded to the event around 4 p.m. at Urban Air Trampoline and Adventure Park, 19800 S. LaGrange Road. He said investigators determined that a fight that initially started between a couple of juveniles escalated into an incident involving about 30 people.

Police arrested a 17-year-old from Merrillville, Ind., for disorderly conduct in connection to the event, and Benton said the incident was an ongoing investigation as the department reviews video footage of the fight. Benton also said an employee of the business was injured during the fight. Richard Free Press is a one-stop destination for the news that most affects you, the southwest suburban resident.
