On reaching the spot, cops requested the residents to keep the volume down, but were met with violent resistance as a group of youngsters assaulted the officers and even pelted stones at them. Eight people were arrested after the incident.
Meanwhile, in Antop Hill, a fight erupted between two groups, which led to the arrests of three people by officers of the Rafi Ahmed Kidwai Marg police station.
In spite of these two stray incidents, Joint commissioner of police for law and order, Deven Bharti, maintains that Mumbai largely remained peaceful during New Year celebrations.
