SCHENECTADY, N.Y. - The Schenectady Police Department has arrested a woman
for her role in allegedly orchestrating and encouraging a fight between two juvenile
males earlier this month.
Police say the fight took place on October 11th on Sixth Avenue in Mt. Pleasant and was captured on cell phone video. The video was turned over to police detectives, who observed 32-year-old Nickia Dickerson, of 1159 Chrisler Avenue, encouraging the fight.
Dickerson is supposedly seen
on the video encouraging the two males to fight. Police say she separates them at one
point so they can continue their fight again, and blocks traffic so the two children
can continue fighting.
She was arrested on Wednesday after an investigation and charged with two counts of Endangering the Welfare of a Child, two counts of Reckless Endangerment, Criminal Facilitation 4th-degree and Menacing 3rd-degree.
Police are not releasing the video due to the age of the males involved.
