On Tuesday two men, who also both needed hospital treatment, were arrested on suspicion of the same offence following a bloody fight outside garages in Kingsley Road at around 4pm.
The dispute spread to Eridge Green when the men were involved in a car chase.
Shocked onlookers saw a Mitsubishi Shogun 4 x 4 vehicle deliberately ram a silver Mercedes off the road and onto the green where children
often play football.
The men, and according to one eyewitness a rottweiler dog, got out of the vehicles and hurled abuse at each other.
Police officers arrived soon after and arrested two men.
A police helicopter searched for third men who sped away from the scene.
