A daytime brawl in the streets of the UK has left one teenager "stabbed", with footage of the scene showing a fight between several people.

The incident, which occurred on Clepington Road in Dundee, Scotland at around 4.30pm, saw cars attempting to drive by a group of people throwing hands. One man had thrown his shirt off as another brawler launched themselves at a passing vehicle. Pedestrians spotted in the vehicle watched on as the brawl unfolded, with one person allegedly stabbed in the proceeding brawl. An 18-year-old was taken to Ninewells Hospital as police enquiries into the wild event continue.

It is believed at this time there was a stabbing during the brawl, with investigations from the force yet to fully determine the cause and circumstances of the brawl. No information on the identities of those involved has yet been released, though officers are working to determine the "full circumstances" of the fight. Drivers were seen attempting to swerve around the offending participants, who were spotted tearing into each other, EdinburghLive reported.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "Around 4.30pm on Tuesday, 26 September, 2023 we received a report of an assault on Clepington Road at the junction with Caird Avenue in Dundee. Emergency services attended, and an 18-year-old man was treated at Ninewells Hospital. Enquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances."
