Football fans clash in footage of violent brawl as punches thrown and 'blood everywhere'

Police are looking into a violent exchange between Cardiff City and Luton Town supporters after shocking video footage emerged online that shows more than a dozen men exchanging punches outside Ninian Park railway station.

In a 23-second video clip posted on YouTube, one fan is seen on all fours in front of a coach that had been carrying Luton supporters after being struck, while passersby try to avoid the violence. Observers claimed that the fighting started after bottles were allegedly thrown at the bus, leading to some passengers getting off and the incident escalating.

Cardiff City say that they are aware of the incident which occurred ahead of the Championship fixture between the sides on Easter Monday and police have been sent additional footage of the disorder, which eyewitnesses said lasted up to five minutes. A spokesman for South Wales Police told Mirror Football that they "were called at 2,45pm concerning a disturbance near Ninian Park railway station involving up to 40 people. Officers attended and the crowd dispersed."
