House party fight ends in injury, arrest

A fight at a house party this weekend left a 20-year-old injured and one person in custody, according to a Madison Police Department report. 

 

 

 

Early Sunday morning, 19-year-old Chantha Tep was at a party on the 700 block of West Main Street, where he became involved in a dispute with another person and proceeded to leave the party.  

 

 

 

He returned later with a group of friends and they forced their way into the residence and confronted the victim, who is not a Madison resident. Some members of the group beat the victim, causing contusions and bumps to his head.
