Thursday, at approximately 1:00 pm, two adult males engaged in a consensual fight near Marshall Avenue in West Ferris. North Bay Police say the two males chased each other and continued to swear at each other while stopping to fight in various areas near Silver Birches Elementary School.
Staff at the school called the police to alert them once the two men had entered the playground area where students were playing outside at recess.
A letter accompanied students from Silver Birches home to explain the circumstances. School officials say that the children were never in danger during the altercation.
Both males were arrested and charged with causing a disturbance by fighting. They were both released with a court date on November 28.
