A man and woman were arrested this morning after Ann Arbor police responded to reports of fights outside The Fifth Quarter, a bar on South Fifth Avenue, police said.

Roughly 200 people were leaving the bar shortly after 2 a.m. when police say two groups of people started fighting.

At least 10 people were involved, prompting Ann Arbor police to call University of Michigan police and Washtenaw County sheriff's deputies for assistance, police said.

A 21-year-old man and 20-year-old woman, both from Ypsilanti Township, were arrested, Ann Arbor police spokeswoman Lt. Renee Bush said.

So far, no charges have been filed.
