City centre inspector Phil Spurgeon said: "Officers were approached by a 20-year-old woman on Deansgate Locks in the early hours of Saturday 25 June.
"She showed officers some redness and swelling to her upper arm, which she claimed had been caused by a door supervisor from a nearby bar.
"Officers took details of the woman and door supervisor and made arrangements to view CCTV the following evening.
"The female then attended the Town Hall police station on Wednesday and insisted she had been assaulted.
"She was then shown the CCTV and issued a fixed penalty notice for wasting police time.
"The decision to issue a fixed penalty notice rather than prosecute, reflected the limited time officers spent on the investigation.
"Officers also took the door supervisors views into account."
