The woman was found unconscious on the sidewalk when officers arrived. She was taken to a hospital as a result of injuries suffered in the fight, authorities said.

The woman was with her friends waiting to enter The Crosby when an argument with another group of females turned violent, officials said. Two or three other women hit and kicked her while she was on the ground, police said.

Witnesses told Santa Ana police people near the fight may have recorded it with cell phone cameras.

"We're monitoring YouTube and all the various sites to see if this will pop up," said Santa Ana Police Cpl. Anthony Bertagna. "But our hope is by coming to you that the people will know this woman is in critical shape. We need the help to solve this case."

The circumstances surrounding the fight were unclear, but police said the club's bouncers and security guards did not see the fight until it was over because it was far enough away from the front door.



Detectives believe cell phone footage was taken of the attack, and are asking anyone with information about the incident to call 714-245-8390.
