The 18-year-old actor, who plays Darren Miller in the BBC soap, was with friends in a London bar when a fight spilled onto the street, The People reports.
A police officer passing the Walkabout in Islington tried to intervene but was attacked and required hospital treatment.
Commenting on Hawkins's role in the incident, an EastEnders spokesman said: "He was not involved apart from trying to defuse the situation."
Police confirmed that two men have been arrested and bailed on suspicion of GBH.
