A spokesman said: "Two women, aged in their 20s and 30s, have been interviewed under caution in connection with the incident. Enquiries into the matter remain ongoing."
It is not clear if the two women questioned are those featured in the video.
In the shocking clip, a dark haired woman in a strappy top can be seen punching, kicking and slapping a smaller woman in an orange tracksuit as well as dragging her by the hair and appearing to slam her face into the road surface.

The video also shows two other women arguing and fighting in the background, with one attempting to intervene as the fight between the two younger women spirals out of control.
The clip is thought to have been filmed at the junction of South Road and Vermuyden Road in Moorends and was shared in a Facebook group called Doncaster Talk.
At the end of the clip, the tracksuited woman and another female climb into a car parked at the side of the road while the dark-haired woman marches triumphantly towards the camera.
