LAWRENCE CO., Ill.—Police are busy tonight all over Bridgeport responding to fights and people otherwise getting out of control.
At about 8:30, one woman was injured in Bridgeport tonight when a gang of people, reportedly six males and three females, approached a house on Lanternman Drive and began beating on it with baseball bats.
The mob approached the house in vehicles described as a gray Stratus, and a maroon car of otherwise unknown description.
It’s being reported that a Miranda Lewis of Indiana was injured when she was hit in the neck with a crowbar, but whether she was among the mob, or inside the house, remains unknown at this time.
It’s unknown whether Bridgeport’s ‘police chief’ Scott Murray is on duty and responding, or if he’s taking the weekend off and letting county handle it.
Almost immediately after officers responded to the scene in Bridgeport, another fight was reported, with “cops screaming at” those involved. The location of this fight is unknown at this time.
Another call has been made at the 400 block of South Main in Bridgeport. Arrests are reported to be occurring.
