A male juvenile faces numerous charges, including mob action, following a large fight that broke out June 9 on Old Post Road in Boulder Hill.
About 12:17 p.m., deputies from the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office received a report of an altercation on Old Post Road involving an individual armed with a baseball bat threatening the residents of a nearby home, according to a news release from the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office. When deputies arrived at the scene, the individual had left the area and could not be immediately located.
About 6:55 p.m., deputies were called back to the same location for reports of a large fight involving multiple people, according to the release. The individuals involved in the fight fled the scene before deputies arriving on the scene.
