Blood Seen After Clarendon Hills Restaurant Fight: Cops

CLARENDON HILLS, IL – Clarendon Hills police were called to a fight on the night of March 27 at a downtown restaurant, police said.

The brawl occurred at Thassos Greek Restaurant, 1 Walker Ave., according to a police report.

When officers arrived, they saw a person who was bleeding from the nose and appearing emotionally distressed, police said. The person was walking away.

Both people in the fight suffered minor injuries, but they refused medical attention, police said. They also declined to press charges.

The restaurant asked officers to issue a no-trespass notice to one of the people, which the police did.

Police said they decided against pressing charges because both people declined to do so, officers found no surveillance video and no independent witness could point to a "primary aggressor."

Both people were described as cooperative with officers.

Patch obtained the police report through a public records request. The parts with the witness statements were blacked out, with police saying the information could "unavoidably" identify those involved.
