At least one police officer was punched in the face Sunday on the final night of the Wisconsin State Fair, according to an officer on the scene.

Witnesses told 12 News multiple fights broke out late Sunday.

By 10 p.m., 12 News spotted several police officers on horseback at the north entrance near Spin City, the area of the fair with the rides.

Dispatch audio indicated chaotic moments near the rides. “They need some help at Spin City. Send anybody extra you have,” one police officer could be heard saying.

Monday afternoon, Wisconsin State Fair officials told 12 news police arrested 7 people connected to the incidents. They also said there were no serious injuries reported to fairgoers. However, a member of the fair’s security team was injured. Officials declined to detail that person’s condition.

Wisconsin State Fair released a statement:

“Sunday evening, near the close of the annual State Fair, Wisconsin State Fair Park Police, with the support of the Milwaukee and West Allis Police Departments, responded to disturbances on and around Wisconsin State Fair Park. This included individuals attempting to gain unauthorized access to the Fair, as well as disturbances involving groups on the grounds. Law enforcement and security staff responded quickly as these incidents occurred.

No serious injuries to Fairgoers were reported. Despite initial reports circulating Sunday evening, law enforcement has confirmed there were no gunshots associated with the incidents at the Wisconsin State Fair.

For 11 days, hundreds of thousands of guests came together for a safe and successful Wisconsin State Fair. The incidents Sunday evening were isolated to the final hours of the Fair and are not representative of the experience our guests enjoyed throughout the event. The behavior is always unacceptable and is not what we expect or will tolerate at the Wisconsin State Fair Park.

We had enhanced security and additional law enforcement resources in place throughout the Fair, including support from the Milwaukee and West Allis police departments, Milwaukee Police District 3, MPD Major Events Response Team, mounted and bicycle patrols, and drone coverage. Those resources allowed our security and public safety teams to respond quickly Sunday evening. We continually review our security plans with our law enforcement partners and look for ways to make the Fair even safer for our guests.

The safety of our Fairgoers, vendors, exhibitors and employees is always our highest priority. We are grateful to Wisconsin State Fair Park Police and all of our law enforcement partners for their response Sunday evening and their work throughout the Fair.”
