No arrests after Bristol City and Reading fans 'brawl in street' near Temple Meads

Police have confirmed no arrests were made following reports of a clash between football fans in Redcliffe on Saturday. The alleged brawl between Bristol City and Reading supporters took place after some 200 fans got off a train at Temple Meads ahead of the match, according to one witness.

Ricky Tomlison, from Keynsham, captured footage of the altercation, which took place at around 1pm on Saturday in an alleyway opposite the station. The group is seen fleeing quickly as a police car arrived on the scene and an officer runs to the fracas.

Ricky, 35, was waiting to meet his brother when he reported seeing Reading fans heading off the train and bumping into another group of fans. He told BirstolLive some seemed to be throwing punches and bottles - Avon and Somerset Police have confirmed no injuries were reported.
