PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A physical confrontation involving two groups of opposing protesters in Philadelphia ended with at least two people being arrested, according to media reports, but no serious injuries were reported.
 
 reports that the confrontation occurred Tuesday night, when about 50 protesters who had walked south from an earlier protest over police funding were engaged by more than 100 men who had gathered wielding baseball bats and hammers.
 The men dropped the bats when protesters arrived, and the groups exchanged harsh words. Several members of each group soon began shoving each other, and at least one man was punched in the face, according to the report.
 Two men — one from each group — were detained by police, but their names were not released and authorities did not say what charges they may be facing.
