Tribune Staff Report

SOUTH BEND — Police broke up two fights and heard gunshots early Saturday near Eddy Street Commons after Brothers Bar and Grill closed for the night.

Officers initially disrupted a fight involving a large number of people outside the bar in Napoleon Street. Shortly later, they heard shots to the east. As officers were responding in that direction, they encountered a second large fight in the 1200 block of Napoleon and also broke it up.

No gunshot victims were found and police were unable to determine who fired the shots, SBPD spokeswoman Christine Karsten said.
