Two people were possibly injured but refused treatment, according to DPD.

The video of the incident was first posted online by witness Caleb Bonham, who says it happened near Cleveland Place, KUSA reports.

Bonham posted this message on Facebook:

WARNING VIOLENT FOOTAGE: This is the crap that is going on in downtown Denver, Colorado. The 16th Street Mall is unpatrolled and people are getting hurt. This is why I am posting this. Nothing is being done. The leaders in our city keep saying they are going to do something. When?

We called 911 immediately and I pray those injured in this video recover fully! I am tired of seeing people get hurt and I love my city too much to see it go down like this.

We will continue to cover this story as information is made available.
