Shock footage of vicious fight

Date published: 12 December 2014


A SHOCKING video which shows a yob encouraging his friend to “kill” another man during a vicious fight in broad-daylight in Oldham has been viewed thousands of times online.

Three people have been arrested and bailed in connection with the incident which took place outside Pure Gym, near Alexandra Park.

The disturbing footage shows a fight between two men, and one person in the video can be heard saying, “If it comes to it, kill him.”

Greater Manchester Police have confirmed that since the video was uploaded on October 14, three men, aged 23, 33 and 35, have been arrested in connection with the footage.

However, the video remains online.

It has now been viewed almost 5,000 times and clearly shows a mixed-race man and an Asian man locked in a fight.

One man can be seen repeatedly punching the other in the face as he bleeds from his head.

Racist language is used throughout the video and despite one of the men and his friend asking the fight to stop because he is passing out another person can be heard encouraging his friend to “kill” him.

Throughout the video one man says: “Kill him, kill him.

“That’s it, elbow him. Eat him alive.

“Knock him out, kill him.

“If it comes to it, kill him. I don’t care if he’s knocked out, kill him.”

The violent footage is still being shared on the internet through social media and can be viewed by anyone.
