A fight inside of a bar in New Haven early Saturday morning led to a shooting and two people were injured, according to police.

Officers responded to Noa in the 200 block of Crown Street around 1 a.m. for a report of gunshots.

Callers said there was a fight inside of the bar and two gunshots were heard. After the incident, the people inside of the bar fled from the area.

While officers were there, a 28-year-old woman said she was shot. Investigators said there appeared to be a scratch to her right shin with a small amount of blood. She was taken to Yale New Haven Hospital to be treated.

A second woman later said she was shot, too. Police said she showed officers a small red mark that didn't break skin on her ankle. She did not require medical attention.
