Elevate Trampoline Park will discontinue Saturday teen nights at all Illinois locations following a large fight at its North Peoria location last Saturday.
Owner Liz Wilson said teen night will be replaced with "open jump time," effective immediately.

"We built our trampoline parks on the foundation of creating a fun, positive and safe place for everyone of all ages to enjoy. We are committed more than ever on focusing our efforts to maintain a family friendly environment, where everyone who enters our doors, both guests and staff members, are respected and treated with kindness at all times. This will continue to be a priority going forward," she said in a written statement.

Wilson declined to comment on the Saturday incident, citing the ongoing police investigation. She said Elevate Peoria is cooperating with police.

Videos of the fight attracted thousands of views across various social media platforms over the weekend.
