A shocking brawl erupted in Walsall as armed men clashed on a residential street, raising concerns about public safety
Walsall: You won’t believe what just happened! A group of armed guys got into a wild fight on a street in the West Midlands. They were swinging metal poles at each other, and it was all caught on video.
This crazy scene unfolded on Little London in Caldmore. The footage popped up online on January 8, but we’re not sure exactly when it went down. Just a day before, the police had issued a Section 60 order in the area because they were worried about potential violence.
The video shows five men going at it, with some really going for it with those long poles. It was getting dark, and you could see the street lamps flickering on in the background.
At the start of the clip, two guys were on the ground while others were throwing punches. One guy even ran over to help a friend, shouting, “Get off him!” It was intense!
Then, one of the guys on the ground grabbed a metal pole and started hitting another guy with it. You could hear the metal clanking, and the guy on the ground was crying out. It was pretty wild.
Amid all this chaos, one guy tried to play peacemaker, waving his hands and asking everyone to chill out. And there was even a car parked nearby while all this was happening!
We still don’t know if this fight had anything to do with the police’s Section 60 order. They’ve been asked for more info, but they did say they were ramping up their presence in Walsall to keep everyone safe.
Inspector Phil Upton mentioned that they don’t take these powers lightly but will do whatever it takes to ensure people’s safety. It’s a bit of a scary situation, to be honest!
