Police needed to disburse a large crowd of hundreds of people -- mostly juveniles, officials said -- and one person was arrested Friday night near a carnival in South Philadelphia.
According to police, crowds of about 500 people started to gather at about 7:30 p.m. Friday night near the intersection of 7th Street and Packer Avenue in South Philadelphia.
Law enforcement officials said that the gathering was likely due to a fight involving juveniles.
In that area, the Southeast Youth Athletic Association was hosting it's annual Easter carnival. The carnival was shut down and crowds were dispersed, officials said.
Also, officers said that evening, police arrested a 14-year-old girl along the 3200 block of Darien Street for disorderly conduct, possessing an instrument of crime and recklessly endangering another person.
A knife was recovered, as well, police said.
By 9:30 p.m., officials said, the crowds had been dispersed.
