BOSTON — Two women got into a fight outside the McDonald's on Washington Street in Downtown Crossing on Sunday evening. Boston police arrived, broke it up, and determined both were equal aggressors.

Then both women told officers they'd be meeting up at South Bay for round 2.

The incident, captured on the Boston police scanner and posted by StacoS, happened around 6:15 p.m. One woman had red hair, the other a red sweater — apparently the only way to tell them apart. BPD separated them, but neither seemed particularly interested in staying separated. They informed officers, helpfully, that they had plans to continue the fight at South Bay Center, time to be determined.

South Bay security was notified.
