Video shows two local boys squaring off

Barrington police are investigating a possible "fight club" in town.

On Monday, March 12, the school resource officer at Barrington High received a tip about a video depicting a match in the fight club. Officers checked the video, which showed two 15-year-old Barrington boys throwing punches at each other. A large group of teenagers surrounded the boys, who were wearing boxing gloves.

It was not clear where the video had been filmed, although it appeared to be at a wide open field.
