BATON ROUGE, La. -- LSU starting quarterback Jordan Jefferson and three teammates have concluded several hours of meetings in which they were asked to give their recollection of a bar fight to Baton Rouge police.

Police Sgt. Don Stone says the meetings ended without any arrests being made or charges being filed.

Offensive lineman Chris Davenport and linebacker Josh Johns were the first to leave. Jefferson and receiver Jarvis Landry left nearly an hour later.

Authorities say four people were injured in the fight last Thursday night, and that one person's injuries were serious enough that two unspecified players could be arrested on felony battery charges.

The four players have hired defense attorney Nathan Fisher, who attended Tuesday's meetings.

Fourth-ranked LSU opens its season against Oregon on Oct. 3 in Dallas.
