A man and woman were arrested and three others were injured after a brawl broke out at a Chuck E. Cheese's restaurant in the Lincoln Park community, police said.
The fight broke out at about 7:10 p.m. Sunday at the children's restaurant on the 1800 block of West Fullerton Avenue in the Lathrop Homes neighborhood, said Chicago Police News Affairs Officer Jose Estrada.
Police were called to the restaurant for a report of a large group of people fighting at the restaurant, Estrada said.

Why was I able to guess this was Chicago before clicking (know nothing about “Lincoln Park”).
Lincoln Park has a zoo. Insert joke here.
There’s something about Chuck E. Cheeses that seems to encourage riots.
There’s an occasional riot at a McDonald’s when it’s invaded, but it apparently the regular patrons of Chuck E. Cheeses just like to riot as a regular thing. It helps ease the boredom, and maybe they can get away with not paying for all their food.
Hmmm. No racial mention. But I’m kinda thinkin’ the names were a dead giveaway.
Alcohol, noisy brats, and frustrated parents.
Couldn’t be the clientele, could it ?
I would riot if I had to eat cardboard with ketchup on it.
‘Lincoln Park’. Someone done lef dat pizza pie out in da rain agin,
Mmmm. Mmmm mmm Ah don’ thing ah evah git dat recipes agin.
No suh!
The only way I’d enter a Chuckie Cheese would be with a tactical squad wearing night vision immediately after cutting the power and sealing the exits.
There have been other reports of fights at Chuck E Cheese. Is there something about the people who go there, something about the atmosphere in Chuck E. Cheese that brings out the worst in these parents? What lessons are their kids learning to see their parents get in a fight????
To paraphrase Simon and Garfunkle;
"Someone told me,
It's all happening at the zoo,
Called Chuck E. Cheeses..."
It is a place for parties and family gatherings...OFTEN leaving out an estranged parent or family group. It is open to the public and therefore becomes a place for confrontation...usually over children.
Yes, children’s birthday parties seem to be special occasions for brawls.
That's what you get with TRUE God fearing Christians
Please read my reply #16, it covers some of you questions.
Add to that, the customers from the area they are located.
