Police Called to "Large Hostile Crowd" at Point After

Police from three departments responded to a local club early Sunday morning for what turned out to be a "large hostile crowd," according to police.

Hamden police got a report of a fight inside The Point After at 1349 Dixwell Ave. at about 1 a.m. Sunday morning, according to Hamden Police spokesman Capt. Ronald Smith.

"As officers approached, a large group of individuals began fighting," Smith said in a release Monday. "Hamden Police subsequently requested assistance from the New Haven and North Haven Police Departments to help disperse the large hostile crowd. Both departments provided officers, who helped to restore peace."

Two people were injured during the melee, Smith said, one of whom told police he was jumped. He was taken to the hospital with a head injury, Smith said.

Another person incurred an arm injury, Smith said, but she refused treatment.

Officer Eric Hallstrom conducted the investigation, Smith said. There were no reported arrests.
