The Madison Police Department responded to a call of an unconscious man in the 400 block of W. Gilman Street early Saturday morning.
According to the MPD incident report, the 42-year-old man, who was identified as someone attempting to start fights on State Street earlier that night, had a swollen eye and was taken to the hospital.
The man had no recollection of the events leading up to his unconsciousness, but a witness told MPD the victim “initiated a disturbance with a group of men.” There was fighting, including punches and kicks, following the disturbance.
