According to NBC 10 in Providence, multiple police departments were called to break up a fight during the New Bedford Whalers opening game on Friday night. Video footage shows a number of police cruisers lined up on Maxfield Street in New Bedford near the entrance of Dr. Paul F. Walsh Athletic Field on Friday. It was the first game of the season for the Whalers at home, playing against Taunton when New Bedford police said there were several disturbances in the crowd that led to the game being canceled in the third quarter. Officers from at least three departments assisted to help clear the crowd. New Bedford school officials told NBC 10 that no players on either side were involved in the fight; they said it appears an argument between two people drew others in. In a statement, New Bedford Superintendent Thomas Anderson said: "We are working with the appropriate officials to get a complete picture of the situation so we can make informed decisions regarding next steps about discipline or changes in procedures." The school district said they are reviewing the incident and Police said they found no weapons while making no arrests after a search of the area.
