Five Chicago police officers were injured as they broke up a large fight in the Little Village nieghborhood on the West Side early this morning, police said.
Thirteen people were in custody in the fight, which took place a little before 4:30 a.m. in the 2800 block of West 25th Street, said Chicago Police News Affairs Officer Michael Sullivan.
The officers injured were all treated and released, police said; the most seriously injured had been hit over the head with a bottle.
Police initially were called for a complaint about loud music, followed quickly by another report about a fight, Sullivan said.
The group of people fighting among themselves started fighting with police when officers arrived, Sullivan said. Officers from the Ogden and Harrison police districts were among those who responded to the fight, which happened on the border between the two districts.
