Original reports said no injuries were reported and no medics were called to the scene but the Dayton Police updated those reports by saying one person was taken to the hospital but refused treatment.
Dayton Police were dispatched to the 400 block of East Fifth Street in response to a fight.
Upon arrival, officers requested additional assistance, a signal 99, after a large crowd had multiple fights happen, Hall said.
These fights broke out at different times in different areas of the street.
