CHARTER OAK - A brawl between teens broke out at Charter Oak Park September 15.

It is unclear exactly why the teenagers began fighting each other at the park, 20261 E. Covina Blvd., but at one point someone brandished what appeared to be a handgun and pointed it at some of the teens. Some of the incident was caught on cell phone video.

The park is across the street from Charter Oak High School.

“Our students' safety is always paramount, and I want to thank those who contacted the school and the Sheriff’s Department to report the incident,” according to Charter Oak High School Principal Matthew Dultz in a written statement sent to parents the day of the brawl.

The San Dimas Sheriff’s Station said the Sheriff’s Parks Bureau is handling the investigation. Several messages were left seeking information on the investigation, but those messages were not returned.

It is unclear if any arrests were made or if a weapon was seized.
