Galesburg Police on Sunday night were dispatched to the area of Monmouth Boulevard and South Academy Street for a possible domestic battery. An 18-year-old male flagged down officers and told police he was going to kill his 17-year-old brother. Two brothers were in the roadway arguing. As officers met with the two teens, the 17-year-old approached the 18-year-old and punched him in the face. The details regarding how the fight started remain unclear, but according to police reports the two brothers were arguing about money. The 17-year-old was taken into custody but continued to scream while being placed in a squad car. The teen was transported to the Knox County Jail and processed by jail staff. He was charged with Domestic Battery and released to his mother.
