LIVINGSTON, Calif. (KFSN) -- Two Livingston police officers are recovering from minor injuries after a fight involving about 20 people.

Police arrested 56-year-old Gerardo Barajas and 36-year-old Hector Parra.

They're both charged with obstructing and assaulting a peace officer.

A 17-year-old boy and girl were also cited and released.

Authorities say it all started when they were called to a home on Elmwood Court near Briarwood Drive around two this morning for a domestic dispute.

The officers were attacked by several family members and used their batons to protect themselves until sheriff's deputies arrived.
