Six men were arrested on suspicion of disorderly conduct in connection with a fight at the Wild Rose, 109 W. Seventh, early Sunday morning, and two Hays Police Department officers received minor injuries trying to make arrests.

According to Assistant Chief of Police Brian Dawson, at approximately 2 a.m., officers were flagged down by a crowd outside the Wild Rose informing them a fight had broken out inside the nightclub.

Dawson said officers entered the facility and “started taking people into custody.”

“The crowd outside started circling the officers,” he added. “Some people in the crowd were trying to pull officers away to keep them from arresting some of the suspects.”

Arrested as a result of the incident were Tanner Brunner, 21, Manhattan; Wesley Girk, 42, Protection; Kyle Jones, 18, Hays; Nathan Kuhn, 42, Greensburg; Taylor Shipman, 19, Lamar, Colo.; and Tray Snyder, 41, Coldwater.

The HPD officers received only minor injuries.
