RUSSIANS playing a game of amateur rugby have been arrested by police who mistook the match for a mass brawl.
"We got a call to our control room saying there was a fight involving a lot of people on some waste ground just outside town," RIA news agency quoted a police official in the southern city of Rostov-on-Don as saying.

The players and supporters – nearly 100 people in total – were taken to the local police station. They were released without charge when officers realised they had been playing rugby, the news agency reported.
