Thug uses table as shield in violent street brawl

A man involved in a violent street fight in a Leeds neighborhood grabbed a table to use as a shield amidst a chaotic, late-night brawl.

Seven individuals were seen clashing in the street, with three of them brandishing large sticks as they took swings at each other.

At one point, the fighters began chasing one another down the street.

During the skirmish, two participants ran back into a house on Raincliffe Street, returning with a circular table from the front room to use as makeshift protection in the ongoing melee.

The fight, captured on a one-minute video by a resident across the street and reported by VKNews24, shows the disorder erupting outside the three-story townhouses along the road, where properties typically go for around £115,000.

Local resident Adam Brooks remarked wryly, “Those kids, what are they like? At least they’re off their iPads.”

Others made lighthearted comments, with one joking, “I’ve got a shield,” and another calling it a “nocturnal Morris dance.”

However, some neighbors voiced frustration. One commented, “England used to be so beautiful. But now it’s ugly, and the blame lies with the useless government and parents. England is full of clowns.”

West Yorkshire Police have been contacted for a response on the incident.
