Two police officers were hurt in the melee and four people ended up charged with rioting, according to the Manchester Police Department.
A"chaotic scene unfolded," police said in a statement, as more and more people got involved in the fight. Officers were attacked and assaulted as the situation escalated.
At one point, all working Manchester police officers were called to the scene to calm the"riotous behavior," police said. Four people were arrested and officers ultimately determined that there had not been a robbery with a firearm, police said. An initial investigation revealed that both groups knew each other and the fights were the result of an ongoing conflict.
