Shocking footage shows the moment a man in a wheelchair was punched outside a nightclub by a thug for “running over his foot”.
The video shows the outside of a popular bar in Bristol where several people, including bouncers, are seen standing around.
A man in a white T-shirt approaches a man in a wheelchair, before a second man punches him in the face.
The force of the blow pushes him backwards in his chair, landing flat on his back..
The thug responsible then strolled away with the other man.
It is unknown what caused the disturbance.
The incident took place outside the BSB bar in Bristol's waterfront district last Friday.
The footage caused a stir online, with professional boxer Anthony Fowler tweeting: “Wtf just when you think you seen it all some s***house punched someone in a wheelchair.”
Another added: “That is lower than a snake’s belly, pure s*** house behaviour, I hope he gets what’s coming to him.”
Another fumed: “How small do you have to be to punch a bloke in a wheelchair in the face?
“This is honestly the most shocking thing I’ve ever seen.”
