At some point during the argument, a liquid was poured onto two kids. The children were taken to a local hospital as a precaution.
A woman told NBC6 she was sitting outside her apartment when she heard yelling and screaming.
"We were sitting here and suddenly two other ladies arrived and they had a broom," the woman named Tomasa said. "They broke the whole handle over their head."
