This is the shocking moment that a mass brawl broke out at London Waterloo Station, with dozens of police officers caught up in the violent clashes as they tried to intervene.
Terrifying footage shows groups of hooded men clashing and shouting at each other at what is one of the UK’s busiest stations yesterday.
The thugs, some jumping over platform barriers to get involved, are seen punching and shoving each other as baton-wielding police officers try to break up the violence.
As the brawl becomes more intense, one officer is seen being dragged to the ground before he attempts to pick himself up in a desperate bid to avoid being trampled on by the aggressive crowd.
With the fight showing no sign of stopping, dozens more cops are seen running through the station to try and help as passengers watch on in shock.
The massive police presence brings the violence to an end as offices form a cordon while the group disperses. MailOnline has contacted British Transport Police for comment.
Waterloo has 57.8 million entries and exits each year, meaning only Liverpool Street Station is busier. This was mainly thanks to the opening of the Elizabeth Line.
The brawl is the latest instalment in a series of Lawless London incidents plaguing the capital.
On Friday a fight exploded at a London bus stop as a man was seemingly assaulted in a street attack.
The sound of punches landing could be heard as the crowd watched on, making no apparent attempt to assist.
The man then ceased his assault and picked up a backpack, leaving the other man on the ground.
