CRANFORD, N.J. –  Officials at a day care center are apologizing to parents after two workers were accused of instigating scuffles among the young children as part of a "Fight Club."

After the workers were charged Tuesday with child abuse, the Lightbridge Academy center in Cranford said in a statement that it was "shocked and saddened by this isolated incident."

Center officials say they learned of the allegations in mid-August and suspended the workers — Erica Kenny, 22, of Cranford, and Chanese White, 28, of Roselle. Both were fired a short time later and are due to be arraigned Friday.

The center has been cooperating with the Union County Prosecutor's Office, which investigated the case. The officials say prosecutors limited the amount of information they were allowed to disclose while the investigation was ongoing so as not to put the probe at risk.

Prosecutors and police say Kenny and White instigated the "Fight Club" among children ages 4 to 6 on at least one day last month. Authorities also said Kenny recorded video of the fights and shared the clips with several friends on social media.
