The Littleton Police Department was assisted by New Hampshire State Police, Franconia Police Department and Littleton Fire Rescue.
Fire rescue personnel treated two people at the scene for non-life-threatening injuries, though neither required transport to Littleton Regional Healthcare.
A K-9 tracking unit was deployed to search for the two remaining individuals.
At approximately 11:05 p.m., the remaining two people were located on North Littleton Road and treated for minor injuries.
The four individuals involved in the altercation were a 21-year-old female, a 29-year-old male, a 21-year-old male and an 18-year-old male, all of whom were detained for questioning.
Police interviewed numerous witnesses, though not all provided information.

All three were transported to the Grafton County House of Correction.
The investigation remains active due to the number of people present and conflicting accounts.
