Northern Territory Police are investigating a disturbance at a shopping centre car park in Alice Springs yesterday.
Police were called to the scene at around 1:30pm following reports of a large group fighting, with one person allegedly armed with a stick, and a vehicle having all of its windows smashed.
CCTV operators monitored the incident and identified key people involved.
A 39-year-old woman and a 48-year-old man were arrested by police for engaging in violent conduct.
Two women, aged 36 and 41, were treated at the scene by St John Ambulance for facial injuries.
Acting Commander Robert Griffiths said police are continuing to investigate the incident.
"Three other people are under investigation for their involvement.
"The incident is believed to be linked to ongoing family tensions following the death of a family member last month.
"Police will not tolerate this behaviour, and anyone involved will face charges."
