A 29-year-old Madison man broke a bone near his eye after a fight broke out on a ""party bus"" early Sunday morning, according to police.
The victim went to a local hospital Sunday around 4:30 p.m. with an eye injury including a broken orbital bone, police said.
An officer discovered the fight outside of the ""party bus"" on the 200 block of State Street, around same time the victim said he was injured, Madison Police Department spokesperson Joel DeSpain said.
The officer found a man with an eye injury who refused to reveal his name and did not want medical attention, DeSpain said. The bus driver told police the injured man actually started the fight.
Police believe the man with the eye injury might be the same man who showed up at the hospital many hours later, DeSpain said.
The victim told people he didn't know who organized the bus party.
""He didn't know who was on the bus, but believed they were headed to the Wisconsin Dells following a dance party in downtown Madison,"" DeSpain said in a statement.
