Mason police responded to a fight that broke out at Kings Island Sunday night between six juveniles. Now a 14-year-old and 19-year-old are facing assault charges for their involvement in the fight, police said. 

Around 7 p.m., an officer responded to the Action Zone area at the park for a reported fight. 

The officer located two girls, ages 12 and 14, and an 19-year old boy who said they had been jumped by two males, ages 14 and 19. 

The group of three told police the fight began when the two men insulted them, leading to a verbal altercation. The group said they eventually walked away but later ran into the two men at Kings Island and a physical fight broke out involving six people. 

Adults in the area eventually broke up the fight. 

During the fight, the 19-year-old who told police the two men had jumped him was severely injured in his eye and later required medical attention. 

The two girls also told police they were struck in the fight. 

Police said the 14-year old and 19-year-old are being charged with three counts of assault.

Kings Island officials said safety is a high priority for the park.

"On Sunday, July 18, Kings Island personnel were alerted to a physical altercation occurring inside the park. The park’s security team and Mason police immediately responded to the scene and quickly addressed the situation ..." said a statement from park spokesman Chad Showalter.

"Mason Police led the resulting investigation where multiple charges were filed against two individuals. The same individuals were banned from Kings Island for a period of five years," he said.
