Two people were arrested, including one student and one non-student. No injuries were reported.
Officers did not find an armed subject, a firearm or receive any reports of gunfire, according to university officials.
At 11 p.m., UD Public Safety and Dayton Police Department officers responded to Kiefaber Street due to fights and a large gathering of students and non-students.
Montgomery County Regional Dispatch received two 911 calls around 11:30 p.m. from people saying there was a man near Kiefaber Street with a gun.
Both 911 callers said they were hiding under vehicles.
“I just don’t want anyone to get hurt. There was a lot of chaos going on at this street and I think this should be stopped,” one of the callers said. “... I think police need to come and just clear it up. It’s too much.”
Additional officers responded to the area to disperse crowds. The two people were arrested during efforts to break up the crowd.
A dispatch log also indicated around 12:20 a.m. Monday a person in the 400 block of Kiefaber Street said there was a person at her house she wanted to leave but the person was refusing to go.
She added people were fighting, but said everyone was fine and then said the person was leaving, according to the dispatch log.
The situation was resolved by 1:30 a.m., according to the University.
“The university shared this information with our community today, along with a reminder to students that they are not to participate in any behavior that compromises the safety and security of the university community or the ability of the police and other authorities to maintain order, such as community disturbances where streets are blocked in disregard of police order,” read a statement from University of Dayton officials. “It is a violation of the university’s code of conduct to participate in community disturbance or send mass invitations to them.”
On Labor Day morning, trash, empty beer cans and liquor bottles still littered the street in the 400 block of Kiefaber.
