BRISTOL, Conn. — Police are investigating after gunfire erupted following a fight at a Bristol bowling alley early Sunday. 

Police said around 1 a.m. they received multiple 911 calls about a disturbance with shot being fired in the parking lot of Spare Time Bowling located at 177 Farmington Avenue. The suspects involved had fled the scene before police got there. 

Officials believe a fight between two women started inside the bowling alley and spilled out into the parking lot, resulting in a larger disturbance involving two groups of people. As that was happening, one shot was reportedly fired. The two groups then started to leave the area in two separate vehicles, one a black Honda and the other a gray Hyundai. As the cars are leaving, one blocked the other, said police, and more gunshots were fired before the vehicles took off.
