The suspect, who was involved in the fight, went outside to his vehicle after security escorted out everyone involved in the altercation, according to police.
The suspect then drove into the group of people with whom he was arguing, Patten said.
Police have spoken to some witnesses but are asking anyone who saw the incident, has video or can provide any other information to contact them or Crime Stoppers anonymously.
