Horrifying moment football hooligans blast their rivals with fireworks and attack each other with sticks
Violent clashes broke out during a football match in Ireland after a group of yobs began blasting rival fans with fireworks and attacking them with sticks. The streets of Derry descended into chaos on Friday when two large groups of supporters began attacking each other outside the Brandywell stadium as Derry City faced off against Dublin side Bohemians. A teenage boy and a man, aged in his 20s, sustained injuries as a result of the incident, which took place on the Lecky Road and Lone Moor Road areas, and were taken to hospital for treatment. Horrifying footage showed dozens of masked men wielding sticks, bats and iron bars facing off in front of shocked locals and fellow football fans. In one terrifying video, a gang of yobs can be seen blasting fireworks directly towards a rival group on the other side of a metal fence in scenes that resembled those out of a video game. Others appeared to be holding golf clubs and launching projectiles towards the men as they fled to safety to escape the burning embers and thick clouds of smoke. As the violence ensued, one young girl could be heard getting increasingly distressed as she cries out to her father: 'Daddy, please, daddy!' 'You're alright, you're alright,' he says, desperately trying to reassure her, before telling two men on the opposite side of the fence to 'calm down' as they look for objects to throw back in retaliation. Huge red and green sparks can be seen flying into the air as the yobs fired the projectiles towards their rivals on the other side of the fence A second video shows several young men facing off in a residential area, with some trading punches while others launched sticks and various other projectiles towards their rivals. In a third clip, dozens of yobs can be seen charging towards a smaller group of lads in front of horrified locals - as several sirens can be heard wailing in the background. Police said the disorder, which they believe was pre-arranged, took place in the Lecky Road and Lone Moor Road areas shortly after 7pm. Further clashes then occurred in the vicinity of the Brandywell stadium during and after the football match, which kicked off 7:45pm. Officers in attendance said they worked along with stadium staff to bring the disorder under control. No arrests have been made at this time. Superintendent William Calderwood said: 'We believe that the disorder we witnessed on Friday evening was pre-arranged and we will be reviewing all available footage to identify those involved. 'I would ask anyone with information or footage which could assist us with our inquiries to contact officers at Strand Road on 101.' A report can be submitted online using the non-emergency reporting form via or people can also contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. A local Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) who was at the game said he was left frightened by what he had witnessed. 'In terms of scale and the level of violence and danger to those in the vicinity, we haven't seen anything like this and I hope we never do again,' SDLP MLA Mark Durkan told the Belfast Telegraph. 'It was genuinely scary. I don't scare easily but we did turn on our heels and go in the opposite direction. 'People were genuinely frightened and that shouldn't be the case, especially when they go to a football match.' The Irish Premier league match, which ended in a 1-1 draw, was also briefly suspended after a flare was thrown onto the pitch from outside the ground.

Chaotic moment busker PUNCHES yob who slapped him across the face as chaotic brawl breaks out
A BUSKER has shared footage of him appearing to bravely defend himself against a group of yobs trying to disrupt his act. James Allan, who has more than 1.3m followers on TikTok, confronted the gang of thugs as they attempted to tamper with his equipment in Leeds city centre. 4 4 4 4 One hooded youth in a light blue body warmer even gives the impression that he is carrying a knife. In the video's on-screen captions, James wrote: "A gang of lads kept touching my guitar. "So I thought I'd put them on camera to stop them doing it again." As one of the boys approaches again, James tells him: "You can touch if you want. "I'll go on the TikTok Live and show everyone what you're doing." He then turns the camera to the group, who beat a hasty retreat once they realise they are being filmed. As they slink off, James asks the group: "Why are you hioding your faces? Do you want to touch my stuff again or what?" James' friend Brad then tips him off that one of the boys, wearing a jeans and a sleeveless pukka jacket that partially covers his face, is coming back. The intrepid busker goes to intercept the intruder - but it was only when reviewing the footage afterwards that he realised that the boy appeared to be reaching for what could be a knife. As James writes in the caption: "It's only upon watching this back do I realise he's reaching for his pocket. "Luckily I was able to grab his arms." Glasgow man appears to take money from buskers before teeth fall out in bizarre viral video The boy then slaps James with what appears to be an open palm, before James wades in and clobbers the attacker, plus several of his friends who also try to defend their mate. Several bystanders then step in to try and cool tensions. As James wrote: "People step in to break it up, which is good for me because there was about five of them. "People think they can just absue buskers and we won't defend ourselves." The boy in the puffa jacket then aims a kick at James, who catches his foot and pulls him to the ground. He then goes back to the mic and tells shoppers: 'I'm just trying to make a living, man. Do you know what I mean?' West Yorkshire Police have been contacted for comment. James posted the video on his social media accounts with the question: 'Was I right to defend myself?" One Facebook user said: 'Sometimes gotta stand up to bullies.' Another added said: 'Nice jabs mate…be careful though those little scabs will be back with knives.'
