A brawl that recently broke out between multiple costumed characters outside a popular tourist attraction in Hollywood and was captured on video is now being investigated by the Los Angeles Police Department, according to a report from KTLA.

The incident reportedly occurred sometime Tuesday afternoon on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

The video was posted to the website FilmOn.com and shows people dressed as Mr. Incredible and Batgirl engaged in a fight while a person dressed as Chewbacca attempts to step in and stop them.

Then, a costumed Freddy Krueger intervened and also attempted to break up the character fight, as did someone dressed as Waldo from the “Where’s Waldo” series, the video showed.

At one point in the video, Mr. Incredible is shown throwing Batgirl to the ground.

It’s unknown if the characters were successful in breaking up the fight nor what prompted the fight in the first place.

LAPD Officer Drake Madison confirmed to KTLA that the incident occurred late Tuesday afternoon, but offered no other details.

Madison said that no arrests were made and no injuries had been reported.

He added that LAPD units were investigating the dispute.
