Shoppers were stunned after four people got into a supermarket scrap in the middle of cereal isle in Asda as the nation is advised to maintain social distancing.
The brawl, recorded by a shopper, took place at around 2pm in a Dudley store, near Birmingham, on Thursday.
Two women, believed to be neighbours, can be seen pulling at each others’ hair, before a third woman tries to separate them, and finally a man violently steps in.
He can be heard shouting and swearing, though he is not believed to know the two women.

Eventually, security staff intervene and calm things down.
A witness, who did not want to be named, told Black Country Live: ‘They were fighting for a good 20 seconds before I started recording.
‘It kicked-off in the cereal aisle so the social distancing went out the window while everyone started poking their heads in.’
