A man has been fined at Derry Magistrate's Court charged with disorderly behaviour.
Ryan Murphy (29) of Mount Vernon in Derry was charged with the incident that occurred on September 26 after police found two men fighting in the street.
The court heard that police initially spoke to the males before leaving the scene only to have to turn back when the males started fight again.
Both men were arrested after being seen by police to be punching and kicking each other.
The fight was not captured on CCTV.
Defence solicitor Keith Kyle said that Murphy has 'a limited record' and that he and the other man knew each other.
He was fined £550.
