A massive brawl was caught on camera where patrons of ENVY Dance Club, located at St James Power Station, began to assault the employees of the nightclub.
A video of the brawl – which is believed to have occurred on 11 Nov – has been going viral online. While the exact cause of the brawl is unclear, it appears to have begun when a patron tossed a beer cup at a bouncer.
What started as a relatively small-scale altercation between the patron and the bouncer quickly morphed into an all-out riot as more patrons became embroiled in the fight. Chaos erupted as the majority of clubbers in the arena excitedly joined the fray.
All hell broke loose as furniture began flying and human bodies began falling over as the brawl kept growing more rowdy and a wild stampede began to take shape:
