Several people were hurt after a fight broke out at a community sports centre.
The fight – believed to have stemmed from an event being held at the New River Sports Centre, White Hart Lane, Tottenham – left people with injuries including bumps, grazes and cuts.
Police were called to the venue, owned by Haringey Council, at about 7.30pm on Saturday.
Officers questioned people still at the scene and discovered several people had been hurt during the disturbance.
They had either already taken themselves to hospital, were taken by ambulance or declined treatment.
Everyone with reported injuries has since been discharged from hospital.
A council spokesman confirmed an incident had taken place at the property, adding: “The council is co-operating fully with the police investigation.”
- Three men in their 20s were arrested in connection with the incident have been bailed to return to north London police stations in late June.
