Shocking moment mass fight breaks out between 30 people in Norwich leading to nine arrests
Dozens of police officers required to disperse the crowd and restrain people involved in the fight
A YOUNG boy swings a wooden plank and groups of men and women pace outside houses carrying metal dog leads and throwing punches at each other, before police break up the fight between 30 people.
A video posted to Facebook shows a large group of people involved in a fight in Norwich on Sunday evening.
Men, women and children, who police believe know each other, were all outside homes in a residential street in the Norfolk city as the dispute began.
Eventually police arrived in more than five cars to disperse the crowd and arrest nine people, while onlookers shout.
One person resists up to five police officer's attempts to restrain him, while elsewhere officers take on a person each.
