EATONTOWN, NJ — Several fights broke out and two teenagers were arrested Sunday at the Monmouth Mall AMC movie theater.

Two juveniles, ages 14 and 15, were arrested, said Eatontown Police Lt. Edward Nelson, and were charged with defiant trespass after being told to leave the theater several times and not doing so.

Sunday was $4 movie day at select AMC movie theaters nationwide, and the Monmouth Mall location in Eatontown was one of them. That discount day always draws large crowds, Lt. Nelson told other media outlets.
