Police investigating after teen girls caught on video in brawl at McDonald's near Parkdale Mall

The fight, which may have involved up to a dozen people, happened Saturday night at the McDonald’s at Parkdale Mall.

BEAUMONT, Texas — Police are investigating a Saturday night fight at a Beaumont fast food restaurant that was caught on video and shared on social media.

The fight, which may have involved up to a dozen people, happened Saturday night at the McDonald’s at Parkdale Mall at 4515 Dowlen Road in Beaumont.

Beaumont Police were dispatched to at least three disturbances Saturday evening between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. according to a Beaumont Police Department spokesperson.

It was unclear if the calls were for three different disturbances or the same one.

Video of the fight appeared to show at least four teenage girls actively fighting with a couple and several other teenage girls in the parking lot of the restaurant.

As the couple and the teenage girls attempt to leave in a car the four girls can be seen in the video attacking the other girls as they try to get into the backseat of the car.

One of the girls in the car can be heard pleading with the girls in Spanish to “leave me alone, please.”

Police say that that a police report was filed Monday and that they are investigating, no arrests have been made. 

12News showed the video to Billy Kendrick, who hadn't seen it before.

"I'm shocked, I mean our young people are going to be taking over one of these days and we've got people acting like that," Kendrick said. "It saddens me."

Beaumont ISD Police are assisting in trying to identify the people in the video according to the police spokesperson.

They released this statement Monday:

Kendrick believes those involved in the fights, should face consequences and that this should serve as a lesson to all.

"I think they should be punished, there's no sense in this," Kendrick said. "I just hope these people that did this, one day is going to learn."

The video has been circulating on social media as screenshot video taken from what appears to be an Instagram account belonging to “blueeyed_gangster” and has been garnering comments and shares since it was posted sometime on Sunday.

Jefferson County Precinct One Constable Jevonne “JC” Pollard sent out a message on the Neighborhood App saying, she is deeply disturbed by the video and plans to make juvenile violence like this a top priority in her office.

The McDonald’s is in Precinct One.
