It was the second incident of violence outside Alianza Lima's stadium in as many weeks.
On Sept. 10 at least one person was wounded and several were arrested after some of the club's fans clashed with members of an evangelical church in a dispute over who owns a sprawling plaza in front of the main entry to the stadium.
Alianza Lima and the religious group El Aposento Alto both claim to own a swath of land next to the Alejandro Villanueva stadium, where the club has set up installations used for storage and parking.
The club is one of the oldest and and most successful in Peruvian football, winning 23 national league titles since it was founded in 1901.
