Police arrest woman after group fight outside Osaka bar

Madison police arrested one woman after officers arrived at a State Street bar early Sunday morning to find several women engaged in a street brawl.

Two groups of women ended up in the fight after one group claimed the other group cut in front of them in line at Osaka Bar at 505 State Street, according to the report.

“Officers arrived to find several women rolling around on the sidewalk, pulling hair, throwing punches,” Madison Police Department Spokesperson Joel DeSpain said in a statement.

One Madison woman suffered a bloody nose while one fled the scene upon officers’ arrival, according to DeSpain.

But police said the woman left without her purse, and officers contacted the 39-year-old by phone.

“[She] said she was ‘extremely bothered’ by the fact that one of the women from the other side tried to grab the wig off her head,” DeSpain said in a statement.

Police arrested one 23-year-old woman involved in the fight for disorderly conduct.
