Police are investigating a brawl during Oktoberfest involving players from promoted Bundesliga side Augsburg.
A Munich police spokesman said Tuesday ''it's still to be determined how many people were involved'' in Sunday's fracas.
One visitor was slightly injured in the disturbances and subsequently filed a complaint of assault.
The dapd news agency reported that the brawl was triggered by abusive chants directed at the Augsburg players.
