Police also investigating 'brutal' brawl on Collins Street
Police are also investigating another fight that broke out on Collins Street in Melbourne's CBD at about 3:45am.
Two eyewitnesses, Peter and James, said they were at a club in the CBD and saw two groups yelling at each other.
"After the yelling, they moved down the road because security was there, so they got away from them," Peter said.
"Then someone threw a punch … and a bunch of other guys came in and then they all started hitting each other and full on it went all the way down the road around the corner."
Police then arrived and broke up the fight, and a few people were arrested, the eyewitnesses said.
"It was real brutal, it was lucky the police arrived when they did," James said.
Police said two men aged 20 and 21 were taken to hospital with minor injuries.
