BATAVIA – A children's dispute over arcade tickets escalated into a physical altercation between their mothers, leading to criminal charges for one, Batavia police said.
The incident happened Feb. 13 at Chuck E. Cheese’s, 511 N. Randall Road, Batavia, when a discrepancy arose over the children’s tickets, Detective Kevin Bretz said.
Their parents “got into it,” he said of the physical altercation. He said the fight resulted in minor scratching and that no medical treatment was sought.
He noted the parties knew each other, and one of the mothers left before police arrived.
An officer later called the mother who had left, Shaquerra Fultz, who turned herself in to Batavia police on Friday, Bretz said.
Fultz, 29, of the 300 block of Springlake Lane, Aurora, was charged with two counts of misdemeanor battery.
Bretz said she posted bail and was released. She is expected in court March 8.
