The “main aggressor” in the fight was reportedly bottled, and when police were treating him as a victim, he assaulted two officers and was arrested.
Neighbourhood policing teams, traffic officers, the police helicopter and police dogs were called to help the situation.
Half an hour later, a dispersal notice was issued and if those people issued with the notice returned to the location they would be arrested.
