Multiple brawls between teenagers have broken out at a San Francisco mall in recent months - many of which have happened during afterschool hours on Wednesdays, which are early release days.

Security guards at San Francisco's Stonestown Galleria shopping center have been so overwhelmed that the San Francisco Police Department is now involved. 

Just between March 15 and March 17, there were three incidents where groups of teens entered the mall and assaulted each other, SFPD said. 

The most recent attacks, which happened last week inside the Target store and at the food court, were captured on cellphone video that was posted to social media.

Supervisor Myrna Melgar who represents District 7 where the mall is located, said the mall has increased security patrols in the area. Melgar also said that she would be speaking with the San Francisco Unified School District - as the fights have been occurring when school has early release days.
