HADLEY — Police have identified the University of Massachusetts football player involved in a fight Saturday night at a house on Rocky Hill Road and plan to charge him with two counts of aggravated assault and battery.

He won't be identified until arrested, said officer Douglas Costa in an email.

The six tenants, meanwhile, will be summonsed to Eastern Hampshire District Court in Belchertown on charges of violating the town noise ordinance bylaw, he said.

Police are still looking for the driver of an SUV who struck a pedestrian leaving the party Saturday night into Sunday morning at 124 Rocky Hill Road.

The pedestrian was taken to the hospital, and was treated and released.

Police described the vehicle as a white or gray SUV; witnesses were unable to supply information about the make, model or plate. Anyone with information is asked to contact Costa at 413-584-0883.

Police were tied up for several hours at the party dealing with the fight and cars parked on the road and the accident, according to the police Facebook posting.
