Multiple police vehicles and flashing blue lights surrounded the OVO Hydro in Glasgow late on Saturday night, November 7, after eyewitnesses reported brawls outside the venue.
Video footage shared on X shows a group of men exchanging punches outside the arena before two officers move in to try to restore order. Further footage shows a considerable number of officers pouring out of police vans to tackle the disorder.
Eyewitness reports of chaos
Nearby residents quickly noticed the substantial police response, with one posting: "What on earth is happening in Glasgow? Absolute chaos."
An eyewitness wrote on X, formerly Twitter: "Major incident in Glasgow now. Police everywhere. 100s of men fighting each other."
Event at the venue
The heavy police deployment followed the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship event, which took place at the venue earlier on Saturday night.
Police Scotland have been contacted for a comment regarding the incident.
