PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- A carnival in South Philadelphia is tightening security after police broke up a large and disorderly crowd of young people.

The carnival on Packer Avenue was shut down Friday night after police say the group gathered near Live! Casino and a fight broke out.

One person was arrested. No one was injured.

The carnival company, Houghton Enterprises, now says no one under the age of 18 is allowed in unless they are with a parent or guardian and have added more security.
