A lavish wedding reception for an Indian Muslim couple ended in a brawl at Regent Hall in Bolton, England.
What happened:
Everything was going well at the wedding party on Thursday (24) when suddenly some men started arguing.
Surveillance cameras captured the moment a man walked up to a seated guest, knocked his hat off his head, elbowed him in the face and started the fight.
Suddenly the argument turns into a fight and the guests start hitting each other.
The guests, mostly middleaged men, punch and shove while the one who started the fight is attacked with a stick.
A white fabric that separated the men’s area from the women’s area at the Muslim ceremony was also torn and tables and chairs were broken.
The troublemaker escapes to the women’s section, is pursued and the fight continues.
Overturned chairs
Screams can be heard in the background as people try in vain to stop the fight. Others run for cover.
The fight escalates and one of the guests grabs a pole from the structure dividing the wings and threatens the guests.while another person throws a chair at a man.
The groom and bride in the background of the pictures, dressed in typical Indian clothing, watch everything helplessly in the face of the chaos.
A man has been arrested on suspicion of assaulting one of several police officers who were called to break up the brawl., according to the Chron newspaper. When contacted, Regent Hall declined to comment on the incident.
