Don't miss out on the headlines from News. Followed categories will be added to My News. The terrifying moment a brawl broke out at a busy Tube station in London has been caught on camera, showing a toddler caught up in the chaos. The fight allegedly broke out between three men at Highbury and Islington Station on Thursday, July 17 at around 5.30pm, The Sun reported. Video footage, which can be seen below, shows the moment a group of men start violently punching and kicking one another as commuters rush to get out of the way. Amid the chaos is a young toddler, who appeared to have been abandoned at the bottom of the stairs. Nearby, a baby in a pram can be seen crying as the fight breaks out on the opposite side of the barrier and the stairwell descends into chaos. The video starts just after the brawl broke out, with a man on the floor being repeatedly punched by a group of men. A toddler was left abandoned on the floor as a brawl broke out at Highbury and Islington Station on July 17. Picture: UKNIP/The Sun Commuters rushed past while several men repeatedly kicked and punched a man in a tracksuit. Picture: UKNIP/The Sun A suited man who ran up the stairs quickly begins stomping on the head of the grey tracksuit-wearing man. Another commuter coming down the stairs tries to pull him away before another man intervenes, with the pair managing to restrain him from the attack. The man in the suit then leans over the divider on the stairwell, grabs a backpack and launches it backwards. Once he is released by his detainees, he then immediately rejoins the fight. Several men lift the man in the tracksuit into the air as he thrashes wildly, kicking at the others. The suited man then continues to kick him repeatedly before the man being attacked is dropped onto his back on the stairs. He can then be seen trying to crawl up the stairs while at least three men continue to punch him. Meanwhile, commuters can be seen waiting at the top of the stairs as they watch the fight, or trying to dash quickly past. A woman who had been holding the pram can be heard screaming throughout the video as she earlier rushed towards the toddler. The suited man, who reportedly stomped on the other's head, launched a rucksack down the stairs. Picture: UKNIP/The Sun They pick the man up and continue kicking him as he thrashes around in an attempt to break free. Picture: UKNIP/The Sun The man who had earlier detained the alleged attacker eventually gives up, backing away from the ongoing altercation. Another woman also tries to resolve the situation but backs away when she nearly gets caught by a punch. She discourages a woman in a yellow dress from getting involved in the situation as she can be seen holding the arm of one of the reported attackers. The woman then grabs one of the other men as the video cuts out. British Transport Police hasn't yet released details of the incident, however, eyewitnesses claim one man punched the other while he was holding the baby, causing the toddler to fall to the ground. 'Officers received a report of a fight at Highbury and Islington Underground station at around 5.30pm yesterday,' the force said in a statement. 'Officers are aware of footage circulating on social media, and the incident is currently being investigated.' A woman tries to break up the fight as she grabs onto one of the man's arms. Picture: UKNIP/The Sun Comments on the video expressed concern for the toddler who had been left sitting on the floor throughout the ordeal. 'Crazy, that poor kid could have been trampled,' one wrote. 'Odd that no one is picking up that baby and he is at risk of that whole nest of violence falling down upon him, and they'd most probably carry on brawling on top of him,' another said. A third comment read: 'This is just awful. That poor little boy on the floor. I do hope he's ok.' Metropolitan Police said that the incident was being handled by British Transport Police as the incident took place inside the station.
