ST. CHARLES
Four Women Arrested in Downtown St. Charles Brawl
St. Charles police cited four women from other towns early Saturday morning, Dec. 21, 2013 after a fight broke out near 4th and Cedar streets. According to the police report, Tyler R. Limonez, 21, of the 00-99 block of Lakeview Drive, Yorkville; Allison Gatske, 22, of the 500 block of Meyer Court, Aurora; Amanda K. Lathrop, 21, of the 400 block of Orange Street, Elgin; and Constance J. Quisenberry, 41, also of the 400 block of Orange Street, Elgin; each were charged with public fighting. Two officers on foot patrol were informed by a pedestrian of an altercation on Cedar Street, just east of 4th Street, where they found the four women engaged in a physical altercation. Police said they tried to separate the women but eventually had to force them apart. One officer described the brawl as a “large rugby-like scrum.”
