Detective Chief Inspector Andy Bell, of BCP CID, said: “From our early enquiries, we believe this incident involved two groups of young people who were known to each other and there was no wider threat to others in the area.
“Officers arrived on the scene and the situation was quickly contained, allowing treatment to be given to those who had sustained injuries and fast-time enquiries to be conducted.
“It is reported that a knife and a glass bottle were used in the incident and thankfully, there were no serious injuries.
“We understand that this was a busy time of day near to the college and there would have been a number of students and members of the public who witnessed what happened.
“I would ask anyone with information or footage in relation to this incident to please contact Dorset Police.
“A policing presence will remain in the vicinity as further enquiries are taking place. Our neighbourhood policing teams will be carrying out high-visibility reassurance patrols in the area and can be approached by anyone with information or concerns.”
