we did attend a punch up between two women,” Sergeant Harper said.

“There were no weapons or glass involved.

“One of the women got a blood nose but neither needed medical assistance and QAS wasn’t required.

“It was a physical altercation between two female patrons and they were both given ‘move on’ directions.

“We moved them on and that was pretty much the end of it.”

Sergeant Harper said at this stage no charges had been laid.
