Two University of Michigan students were among a group that was robbed in the school's Nichols Arboretum on Thursday, April 9, police said this week.

The robbery suspects, who displayed a handgun during the incident, took a phone and cash, the University of Michigan Police Department said in an email on April 14. Some of the victims sustained minor injuries, police said.

The incident began on April 9 outside a fraternity in the 500 block of Oxford Street, police said, when two groups of people who did not know each other met.

After a brief interaction, individuals at the fraternity began throwing objects, prompting one group to flee into the University of Michigan Nichols Arboretum.

The second group pursued the first and, after catching up to them, assaulted members of the first group, police said.

Police said the incident remains under investigation and added no other information was being released.
