Legal Question in Personal Injury in Minnesota

I am being charged 5th degree assult and disorderly conduct for defending my self because a kid started hiting me first and I did not want to get hurt or anything. Of course I did hit back but with correct force in my dad (former Memphis police officer) and another police officer here. Could anyone tell me why I'm being charged?
