AKRON, Ohio -- A sheriff's office says it wasn't sure who was responsible for a large disturbance until police received a tip that the entire fight was posted on YouTube.
The Summit County Sheriff's Office says it arrested two people and issued warrants for three others after an investigation aided by the video on YouTube's United Kingdom Web site.
Summit County Sheriff's Patrol Commander Major Roger Kline says people were already leaving the scene when police arrived at the disturbance in suburban Twinsburg Township last October.
Then police got a tip that someone had posted a five-minute, 16-second video of the incident dubbed "tburg fight" on YouTube on Nov. 4.
Police were able to identify suspects after viewing the video and meeting with Twinsburg High School teachers and administrators.
