ADELANTO, Calif. (KTLA) — Two brothers were arrested after a video surfaced online showing two young children kicking, choking and punching each other while a crowd of kids and an adult stood by and watched.

Authorities said they arrested Gabriel Gamboa, 23, and Agustin Gamboa, 24, of Adelanto and charged them with contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

Gamboa was transported to county jail after authorities said he admitted he was the person in the video and even laughed about it.

In the video, which first aired on KTLA News at 10 Thursday night, a man is seen moving other children out of the way of the fight so that it can continue.

San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department officials say Agustin recorded the fight while Gabriel allowed it to go uninterrupted.

The brothers’ nephew was one of the boys in the fight. Officials are still trying to identify the other boy, an African-American.

Sheriff’s Department initiated a criminal investigation after officials saw the video on KTLA on Thursday.

On Friday, deputies at the Adelanto station received an anonymous call from tenants who told them the fight was filmed in front of the Candlewick apartment complex at 11200 Chamberlaine Way in Adelanto.

Deputies made contact with Gamboa at the apartments, interviewing him as well as other tenants.

The Gamboa brothers were issued citations to appear in court regarding the incident.

Officials at the Sheriff’s Department said the boys in the video were five and six years old and the fight occurred at some point in the past two weeks.

Detectives said they determined from the interviews that physical altercations among children–some involving bullying–have been common at the apartment complex.

The video, which lasted for at least two minutes, was entitled “My nephew messed him up for picking on his home boy.” Gamboa had posted it to Facebook and it has since been removed.

The video shows Gamboa’s nephew pinning the other boy to the lawn and choking him at one point.

The two then move to a sandy part of a yard. There, the Hispanic boy gets pinned.

The children crowding around are seen cheering.
