SOUTH BEND, Ind. (WNDU) - The South Bend Police Department is investigating after fights broke out on Notre Dame’s campus following a high school graduation ceremony.

Police say a verbal altercation took place around 6:30 p.m. as families were leaving Washington High School’s commencement at the Compton Family Ice Arena. Two South Bend School Resource Officers were able to break it up and got everyone to leave.

However, another verbal and then physical altercation happened outside the arena. That’s when Notre Dame police requested help from South Bend police to break up the fight and get everyone to leave. But by the time police arrived, the crowds were dispersed.

Two people were checked out by medics but didn’t go to the hospital.

This is an ongoing investigation and no one has been arrested at this time.
