Four men can be seen trading punches in an ugly brawl close to Blackburn town centre.

The incident took place early on Saturday afternoon (January 28) near Darwen Street bridge. Traffic was halted as four men took part in a brutal punch up as passers-by and other drivers watched on in horror.

In footage shared on WhatsApp and seen by the Lancashire Telegraph the men appear to have got involved in some sort of road rage incident on Park Road near Blackburn Ice Arena. The fight continues for a minute with the four men squaring off against each other.

One man then takes off his top and appears to chase away another man. Later, one of the men kicks at a VW Golf before getting into an Audi which is driven away.

Police have been approached for comment.
