Three people were hurt in a fight involving a machete on Sunday afternoon in Fineview neighborhood in Pittsburgh’s North Side, according to Pittsburgh Public Safety.

Officers from Zone 1 responded to the fight on Graib Street around 3:50 p.m.

According to police, a man suffered a laceration to an arm, but declined medical treatment.

A second man had a laceration on his head, and a woman was hit in the back of the head with a metal object. They both went to a hospital on their own and were in stable condition, police said.

The tires on two vehicles were slashed during the incident, which police said they believe is domestic-related.

The actors fled the area in two vehicles, police said.

An investigation is ongoing.
