Police have launched an investigation after it was reported that a 'fight broke out between hundreds of teenagers' near the Arndale shopping centre.
A huge police presence was sparked in the city centre just after 3pm yesterday (Sunday) with some nearby shops reportedly evacuated.

Police were also seen dispersing smaller groups of teenagers from inside the Arndale shopping centre.
Shortly after, shoppers were evacuated from the nearby Marks and Spencer shop, on Market Street, when an alarm was sounded.
Councillor Pat Karney, who was also among those evacuated, said customers also had to leave Selfridges due to the brawl and retailers on New Cathedral Street had to close temporarily.
Pictures taken at the scene showed a large group of people outside the Arndale and police at the scene.
Cllr Karney said: "We suddenly heard the alarms go off and the staff rushed us out the building, we all thought there was a fire at first.
"We went out into New Cathedral Street and saw a crowd of at least 50 teenagers running down the road.
"The police then came and split them up and quickly moved them away from there too.
