Shocking moment female Brit tourists brawl ‘over a MAN’ in party resort Malia as stunned crowd watches on
THIS is the shocking moment two British women started a brawl in the middle of the street on a Greek island.
Footage shows two unidentified women taking swings at each other, reportedly over a man's attention, in party resort Malia, Crete.
Bystanders did not intervene to stop the pair and filmed the fight instead.
In the video, the two women - one in a black top and shorts and the other in a white top and grey shorts - can be seen punching and kicking each other.
At one point, the woman in white was seen grabbing the other woman's hair, pulling it down and punching her several times.
She then yanks her down to the ground before fleeing.

The woman in the black top ended up bloodied on street.
She is later filmed sitting on the floor, recovering from the brutal beating.
It comes after Brit tourists have been criticised for drunken, rowdy behaviour abroad.
Residents in Tenerife, where thousands took to the streets to call out low-quality tourism, have accused drunk holidaymakers of ruining their island.
The anti-tourist sentiment in the Canary islands quickly spread across Europe with protesters in other holiday hotspots calling for tourists to "go home".
Graffiti have also appeared on walls in cities across Greece and Spain telling visitors to stay away.
Anti-tourist measures sweeping hotspots
A WAVE of anti-tourist measures are being implemented across Europe to curb mass tourism in popular holiday hotspots.
Overcrowding has become the main problem in many sunny destinations, with authorities trying to find a solution to keep tourists and locals happy.
Officials have attempted to reduce the impact of holidaymakers by implementing additional taxes on tourists, or banning new hotels.
Earlier this year Venice became the first city in the world to charge an entry fee for holidaymakers after it started charging day-trippers €5 (£4.30) if visiting the historical Italian centre.
It was followed by an area in Barcelona which resorted to removing a well-used bus route from Apple and Google Maps to stop crowds of tourists from using the bus.
Meanwhile, San Sebastián in the north of Spain, limited the maximum number of people on guided visits to 25 to avoid congestion, noise, nuisance and overcrowding.
The city has already banned the construction of new hotels.
The Spanish government has allowed restaurants to charge customers more for sitting in the shade in Andalucia.
Benidorm has introduced time restrictions, as swimming in the sea between midnight and 7am could cost a whopping £1,000.
The Canary Islands are also considering adopting measures to regulate the number of visitors - and charge tourists a daily tax.
Greece has already enforced a tourist tax during the high season (from March to October) with visitors expected to pay from €1 (£0.86) to €4 (£3.45) per night, depending on the booked accommodation.
Officials in Santiago de Compostela in Galicia want to introduce a fee for travellers to remind people to be courteous during their trips.
