The footage is believed to have been taken in Normanton, Derby, according to the original source.

Footage filmed by a passerby shows a number of young men lunging towards each other while they shout threats.

More than one appear to be brandishing large knives which they waved in their rivals’ faces.

The youths are caught on camera feinting towards one another with most dressed in tracksuits and hoodies.

A road sign reading Grove Street is visible during the shocking confrontation.

One man is seen with a bike while only one yob is seen without a face covering.

In the video, the mask-less man was seen tumbling to the floor during the confrontation but manages to get up just in time.

As he and a man in a grey tracksuit run away, they appear to be chased by two youths dressed in dark colours.

The skirmish ends when the yobs are seen running off in different directions.

The footage then cuts away as they run out of sight behind a bush.

Derbyshire Police have been contacted for comment.

It comes after horrifying footage shows the moment a car ploughed into machete-wielding thugs brawling on the street in broad daylight.

The bare-chested yobs were captured on camera fighting on Clements Place in Dundee, Scotland.

As many as eight people were involved in the brutal street fight as shocked motorists watched on in horror.

A number of thugs were armed with metal poles and machetes as the scrap spilled across a pavement outside residential properties.

Meanwhile, violent thugs armed with foot-long machetes were seen fighting on a tube station platform in full view of terrified commuters.
